Paappan,
the
movie
that
marked
the
reunion
of
iconic
actor-director
duo
Suresh
Gopi
and
Joshiy,
had
a
fantastic
start.
The
investigation
drama
has
impressed
both
the
audiences
and
critics
equally.
It
completed
the
first
weekend
of
release,
and
is
performing
exceeding
well
at
the
box
office
and
has
already
emerged
as
a
hit.
The
latest
reports
from
the
trade
experts
suggest
that
the
Suresh
Gopi-starrer
registered
a
massive
weekend,
by
crossing
the
Rs
8-Crore
mark
at
the
worldwide
box
office.
Paappan
has
reportedly
made
a
gross
collection
of
around
Rs
3.2
Crore
on
its
third
day
alone,
and
a
total
gross
collection
of
over
Rs
8.5
Crore
from
its
first
weekend
at
the
theatres.
It
is
unarguably
a
fantastic
performance,
considering
the
fact
that
Paappan
was
released
with
minimal
pre-release
hype.
The
Joshiy
directorial
had
emerged
as
the
biggest
opener
of
Suresh
Gopi’s
acting
career
so
far,
by
crossing
the
Rs
2.5
Crore
mark
at
the
worldwide
box
office
on
its
release
day.
If
things
follow
at
the
same
rate,
Paappan
might
also
emerge
as
the
all-time
highest-grossing
film
in
the
action
superstar’s
career.
As
reported
earlier,
Paappan
has
not
got
a
massive
release,
with
limited
screens
in
small
towns
and
outside
Kerala.
But
the
movie
is
performing
well
owing
to
the
positive
reviews
and
word-of-mouth
publicity.
The
Suresh
Gopi-starrer
reportedly
had
a
slow
start,
as
its
first
shows
only
had
around
50
per
cent
occupancy.
However,
things
changed
on
the
second
day,
and
on
the
third
day
of
release,
when
the
collections
even
crossed
the
opening
box
office
collection
gross.
Paappan,
which
features
Suresh
Gopi
as
a
former
police
officer,
features
the
actor’s
elder
son
Gokul
Suresh,
Nyla
Usha,
Neeta
Pillai,
and
others
in
the
key
role.
The
Joshiy
directorial
is
penned
by
the
famous
radio
jockey-turned-writer
RJ
Shaan.
The
investigation
drama
is
jointly
produced
by
Sree
Gokulam
Movies,
David
Kachappilly
Productions,
and
Iffaar
Media.
