‘Vaazha 2’ Beats ‘Lokah’ and ‘Thudarum’ to Become the Fastest Entrant to ₹100-Crore Club at Box Office
Despite the arrival of Tovino Thomas’s “Pallichattambi” and Kunchacko Boban’s “Oru Durooha Saahacharyathil,” “Vaazha 2” continues to break records at the ticket windows.
It is heartening to see a film with no big stars shattering the records of movies that feature some of the tallest Malayalam actors. While the film is set to enter the ₹200-crore club globally, it has become the fastest entrant to the ₹100-crore club at the Kerala box office, achieving the milestone in just 15 days. This beats Mohanlal-starrer Thudarum (19 days) and Kalyani Priyadarshan’s “Lokah Chapter 1: Chandra” (24 days).
The film, driven by social media personalities such as Hashir, Alan, Vinayak and Ajin, has showcased the box-office pull of digital-era personalities when backed by strong content and audience connect.
The film's huge success has paved the way for “Vaazha 3: Biopic of a Billion Girls,” which will shift the franchise’s focus to girl-led storytelling.
It will be written by filmmaker Vipin Das, who penned the earlier installments.
