At 72, Mammootty is scripting a great legacy with every new film. The Malayalam superstar has been experimenting and pushing boundaries in recent years. While his rival Mohanlal is failing on that account, Mammootty is consistently delivering acclaimed performances. After the success of Kaathal: The Core, Mammootty’s Bramayugam has also been delivering the goods at the box office. On Day 7, despite being a weekday, the film has managed to collect Rs 1.20 crore, which is only Rs 15 lakhs less than its Day 6 collection.
Domestically, the film has earned Rs 16.95 crore, according to industry tracker Sacnilk. It is expected to cross Rs 20 crore by the weekend. With the positive word-of-mouth, and enthusiastic review, the film is expected to outdo its performances on the weekdays.

By Day 6, the film earned more than Rs 34 crore globally, and the early estimates predict that the film would have crossed the Rs 40 crore mark on Day 7. Analysts predict that the film will eventually earn more than Rs 50 crore by the second weekend.
Anandu Suresh of Indian Express rated the film with 3.5 stars and a part of his review read, “Mammootty doesn’t hold back in even the most disturbing scenes in the Rahul Sadasivan film, going all in and extracting the best from himself to elevate the movie.”
Bramayugam, a black and white film, is a spine-chilling horror, based on Aithihyamala, century-old Malayalam tales. In addition to Mammootty, the film has Arjun Ashokan, Sidharth Bharathan, Amalda Liz, and Manikandan R Achari. Directed by Rahul Sadasivan, Bramayugam is a collaborative production between Night Shift Studios and YNOT Studios.
