The highly anticipated Malayalam period action drama ‘Pallichattambi’, starring Tovino Thomas, took the box office by storm on its opening day. This was evident in its impressive collection numbers, which saw the film rake in a whopping Rs 2.92 cr. However, the film’s momentum seems to have slowed down slightly on day two, with a 43.1 percent drop in the box office collection. As per the latest numbers, the film has grossed Rs 1.65 cr on day two, leaving fans and critics alike wondering if the film’s box office run has peaked too soon.
Reasons Behind the Decline
There could be several reasons behind the decline in ‘Pallichattambi’s box office collection. One possible reason could be the film’s genre, which, although period action drama, may not have appealed to a broad audience. Tovino Thomas has a massive following in Kerala, but the film’s complex storyline may have been a turn-off for some viewers. Additionally, the film’s marketing strategy may have failed to create the desired buzz, resulting in a lower-than-expected collection on day two.
The film’s director, Dijo Jose Antony, has been tight-lipped about the film’s box office performance. However, sources close to the film suggest that the director is not too concerned about the decline in collection. ‘Pallichattambi’ has been made on a modest budget, and the film’s success will be measured by its overall collection, not just the day-wise figures,’ a source revealed.
Awards and Accolades
‘Pallichattambi’ has been making waves in the film industry with its impressive performances, direction, and story. The film’s lead actor, Tovino Thomas, has been receiving accolades for his portrayal of the lead character, a gritty and intense performance that has left audiences in awe.

Film’s Future Prospects
The future prospects of ‘Pallichattambi’ at the box office seem uncertain. While the film’s decline in collection on day two is a cause for concern, the film’s overall collection and awards and accolades suggest that it may still have a long run at the box office. The film’s director, Dijo Jose Antony, has hinted that the film may be released in other languages, which could help boost its collection. Additionally, the film’s online streaming rights have been sold to a popular streaming platform, which could result in a significant increase in viewership.
