Mohanlal and Prithviraj Sukumaran are set to reunite for Empuraan, the much-awaited sequel to their blockbuster Lucifer. Slated for a grand pan-India release on the 27th of this month, the film is already making waves in the industry.
Despite being a week away from its theatrical debut, Empuraan has shattered records by registering the highest hourly pre-sales ever in Indian cinema on BookMyShow. In a remarkable surge, ticket sales skyrocketed from 70K per hour to an astonishing 96.14K per hour within a short span. Advance bookings are open across major platforms like BookMyShow, Paytm, District, and TicketNew, with BookMyShow witnessing an overwhelming response.
This sudden spike in bookings has taken trade experts and fans by surprise. Until recently, the film had a moderate buzz, and even after the trailer release, the hype remained somewhat subdued. However, today’s pre-booking numbers indicate an entirely different scenario.
While some netizens speculate that the unexpected surge could be a technical glitch, others believe it reflects the rising anticipation for the film. Director-actor Prithviraj Sukumaran himself acknowledged the milestone, tweeting about Empuraan’s record-breaking 96K ticket sales per hour. The big question now is whether this momentum will sustain until release or if it’s just a temporary anomaly.
Adding to the film’s advantage is the support from big stars across industries. Superstar Rajinikanth lauded the film’s trailer on social media, further amplifying its reach. Moreover, with Prithviraj playing a key role in SSMB29, his growing pan-India appeal is also contributing to the buzz.
If this trend continues, Empuraan is well on its way to becoming a massive blockbuster at the box office!
