Kerala Story 2 - Dhurandhar
The Kerala Story 2 continues its theatrical run into the fourth week but is now facing strong competition at the box office. According to early estimates, the film collected around ₹11 lakh on Day 22, showing a slight drop compared to ₹13 lakh earned on the previous day.
Despite the dip, the film has managed to maintain a steady pace, even as Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge dominates the box office across India. With the Eid holiday boost, there is still some hope for growth over the weekend.
After 22 days, The Kerala Story 2 has crossed the ₹50 crore milestone, taking its total India net collection to ₹50.90 crore.
Here’s the day-wise breakdown:
The film, made on a modest budget of ₹28 crore, has already generated a return of ₹22.90 crore, making it a profitable venture. However, achieving a “hit” verdict may be difficult as it requires nearly double the investment.
The release of Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge has significantly impacted the box office performance of The Kerala Story 2. The high-octane action thriller is currently dominating ticket windows and drawing massive audiences, leaving limited room for other films to grow.
This tough competition has slowed down the momentum of The Kerala Story 2 during its crucial fourth week.
One of the biggest questions now is whether The Kerala Story 2 can surpass the lifetime collection of Mardaani 3.
Rani Mukerji’s Mardaani 3 ended its box office run at ₹52.99 crore, making it one of the top performers of 2026. To beat that figure, The Kerala Story 2 still needs approximately ₹2.09 crore.
With weekend growth and holiday advantage, the film still has a chance, but the final outcome will depend on how well it performs in the coming days.
Here’s a look at the top performers at the Indian box office in 2026 so far:
The Kerala Story 2 has performed well considering its budget and has already delivered profits.
While The Kerala Story 2 has emerged as a profitable film, its box office journey is now facing its toughest phase due to the dominance of Dhurandhar 2. The coming weekend will be crucial in deciding whether it can surpass Mardaani 3 and climb higher in the 2026 box office rankings.
