Mohanlal¡¯s Barroz to open well in India

Mohanlal, one of Mollywood¡¯s biggest names, is in the limelight because of his latest film Barroz. The fantasy drama, which opened in theatres on December 25, is expected to open to a good response at the box office. Manobala Vijayabalan, a trade analyst, told Indiatimes that Barroz is expected to gross between Rs 5 crore and Rs 7 crore in India on the opening day.

¡°I see Barroz doing between Rs 5 crore and Rs 7 crore in India on the opening day,¡± he said.

A large chunk of this is expected to come from Kerala, Mohanlal¡¯s home state. Barroz, however, may not be able to leave much of an impact in the Telugu states where Pushpa 2 is still doing well. The Allu Arjun-led actioner is also set to affect Barroz in the Hindi belt. Mohanlal¡¯s film also faces competition from Baby John, starring Varun Dhawan, in Hindi.
