No big star. No massive opening. Yet The Kerala Story 2: Goes Beyond is quietly holding its own at the box office — and that says something. In a season dominated by big-budget spectacles, this no-frills sequel has crossed the ₹30 crore nett mark in just 12 days, and even pulled off a surprise spike on its second Tuesday. Let’s break it all down.

## The Kerala Story 2 — Box Office Collections (India Nett)

| Day | Collection |
| --- | --- |
| Friday (Day 1) | ₹0.65 cr |
| Saturday | ₹4.50 cr |
| Sunday | ₹4.50 cr |
| Monday | ₹2.00 cr |
| Tuesday | ₹3.50 cr |
| Wednesday | ₹3.00 cr |
| Thursday | ₹2.10 cr |
| **Week 1 Total** | **₹20.25 cr** |
| 2nd Friday | ₹1.75 cr |
| 2nd Saturday | ₹3.00 cr |
| 2nd Sunday | ₹2.50 cr |
| 2nd Monday | ₹1.25 cr (est.) |
| 2nd Tuesday | ₹1.65 cr (est.) |
| **Running Total (12 Days)** | **₹30.40 cr** |

## What’s Driving the Numbers?

The 2nd Tuesday jump of **30%** was triggered by discounted ticket pricing — a strategy that is becoming increasingly common for mid-budget films trying to sustain footfalls in week two. While the drop from the first Tuesday (Week 1 Tuesday collected ₹3.50 cr) is still around 52%, the upward nudge on a typically flat weekday is encouraging.

With one free week remaining before the release of Dhurandhar 2, the film is projected to close its full theatrical run at approximately **₹40 crore nett**.

## How Does It Compare to the Original?

The [Kerala Story film series](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Kerala_Story) began with the 2023 original, which became a massive blockbuster — opening at ₹6.75 crore and eventually collecting over **₹220 crore nett** in its full theatrical run. The sequel, a no-face-value film without established stars, is clearly operating in a different league altogether.

But context matters. Films in this socially driven narrative genre have seen a general box office softening since the early 2020s — The Bengal Files, for instance, saw a similar pattern of significant audience drop compared to its predecessor, The Kashmir Files. In that broader context, ₹40 crore for a star-free sequel is a respectable outcome.
