The 18-year wait for a Mammootty-Mohanlal reunion ended in a massive cinematic crash. Despite a thunderous opening, *Patriot* plummeted, failing to maintain momentum as fan frenzy faded. With collections stalling at ₹25 crore, this spy thriller is unlikely to hit the ₹50 crore milestone. Mollywood now looks to *Drishyam 3* to recover from this high-profile, heartbreaking commercial nosedive.
