Prithviraj Sukumaran’s latest venture, “The Goat Life,” is rewriting the box office narrative in Mollywood. Since its original version premiered to resounding acclaim, the film has surged ahead, registering the highest first-weekend total in Malayalam cinema, grossing over 65 crores worldwide. Now, “The Goat Life” has achieved another milestone, emerging as the fastest Malayalam film to surpass the 100 crores gross mark.
This landmark achievement marks the first-ever 100 crore grosser for Prithviraj, adding to the illustrious list of successful Malayalam films this year, including “Premalu” and “Manjummel Boys.” “The Goat Life” joins the ranks of esteemed Malayalam blockbusters like “Puli Murugan,” “Lucifer,” “2018,” “Premalu,” and “Manjummel Boys,” becoming the sixth film to reach this pinnacle.
However, the spotlight now shifts to whether “The Goat Life” can surpass the new industry hit, “Manjummel Boys.” This feat wouldn’t come without its challenges, as Fahadh Faasil’s “Aavesham,” Unni Mukundan’s “Jai Ganesh,” and the star-studded “Varshangalkku Shesham,” featuring Nivin Pauly, Pranav Mohanlal, and Kalyani Priyadarshan, are set for release during the upcoming Eid season. With three major releases scheduled, “The Goat Life” faces tough competition for audience attention.
As the race to the top intensifies, “The Goat Life” continues to captivate audiences with its gripping narrative and stellar performances. Whether it can surpass the towering success of “Manjummel Boys” remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: the film industry is abuzz with anticipation as “The Goat Life” aims to etch its name in the annals of Malayalam cinema history.
