The Kerala Story Box Office Collection Day 7: Adah Sharma’s film is based on the story of the conversion of women in Kerala and their recruitment into terrorist organizations like ISIS. The noise of controversies regarding the film has not subsided even now. But it is also true that the film has benefited a lot from this protest and controversy. According to the report of ‘Box Office India’, the film, which started with a collection of 6.75 crores on Friday, has collected a net collection of around 12.25 crores on Thursday, the last day of the first week. Based on the story of three girls from Kerala, the film is being compared to ‘The Kashmir Files’ because of the theme and atmosphere. Whereas in terms of organic booking in theatres, this film is in a better position than ‘The Kashmiri Files’.
‘The Kashmir Files’ earned 96 crores, loss due to ban in Bengal
On Thursday also, the average audience occupancy of ‘The Kerala Story’ shows in theaters is 33%. ‘The Kashmir Files’ had a net collection of Rs 96.11 crore in the first week. ‘The Kerala Story’ produced by Vipul Shah’s production house is banned in West Bengal.
