The Kerala Story has had a solid first week at the Indian box office. The film collected 77 crore nett, with six out of seven days getting a double-digit figure. The opening day was the only day when the film scored a single digit total, and since then there has been no stopping its phenomenal run.
The Kerala Story had a bigger opening day and weekend than The Kashmir Files, but the first week numbers are lower. The reason is that the huge growth on weekdays was missing, and adult content also hurt slightly. Anyway, Kashmir is a bigger attraction than Kerala for Hindi audiences, and the numbers are just reflecting that.
