Mammootty's mass masala Annan Thambi rules Kerala box-office. In two
weeks the film has taken a record distributors share of Rs 3.12 crore
from 75 screens in Kerala.
The marketing of the film is the prime reason for the film's huge
success. By opening in B & C stations, it has boosted collections. For
example the highest distributors' share so far is from Nedumangad
Rani which used to be around Rs 85, 000. For Annan Thambi which released
simultaneously in Thiruvananthapuram and Attingal (the two nearest
releasing stations), two weeks' share from the same theatre is Rs 1,
79,436. In Thiruvananthapuram, it grossed Rs 15, 43,918 from two screens
in the first week. The simultaneous release did not eat into each
others' collections.
Regarding collections VELLI reported AT groseed around
8.5 crores in 2 weeks. It looks like a believable figure considering
that the movie grossed 5 crores in the first week! Imagine that this
is a figure normally achieved by a blockbuster movie in 30 to 35 days
( like MAYAVI)from a release in 42 to 48 stations. But RM did better
than MAYAVI colecting nearly 10 crores in 40 days.

In the number two place is Mohanlal's Innathe Chintavishayam, which from
42 releasing stations has collected a distributors' share of Rs 1.72
crore in 19 days. Clearly the Sathyan Anthikad film is lagging behind
because it did not go for a big release. Now when the film is released
in B & C centers later this month, the collections will not be even one
third of a simultaneous release. For want of new releases in Malayalam
Mulla is in the third place, Cycle at fourth and Katha Parayumbol in the
fifth place.

Note : Ratings are based on the box office collections and the
cost of the film
