This film, which signifies the megastar’s reunion with the renowned director Vysakh, has generated significant buzz on social media owing to its remarkable official trailer. Turbo is poised to have an unprecedented release in Karnataka and international markets, boasting the largest number of screens ever for a Malayalam film.
According to the latest updates, Turbo is scheduled to have a grand release on Thursday, May 23rd, across more than 700 screens worldwide. The collaboration between Mammootty and Vysakh has achieved a remarkable feat by becoming the largest Malayalam release ever in overseas markets. Notably, this action-comedy film has also achieved a significant milestone in Karnataka, securing the highest number of screens for a Malayalam film in the state. With all these reports and the growing anticipation before its release, it is highly anticipated that Turbo will have an impressive opening at the global box office, surpassing double-digit figures on its first day in theaters. If the film starring Mammootty gets a positive response, it will be granted an additional 100 to 150 screenings throughout Kerala, starting from the evening of its premiere. In such a scenario, Turbo could potentially establish a new record with its initial earnings at the global box office. The latest reports from industry specialists indicate that the directorial work of Vysakh has the capability to effortlessly surpass the Rs. 12-crore milestone with its first-day box office collection worldwide.
Trade experts have also indicated that Turbo has the potential to become the sixth blockbuster of 2024, following the success of Premalu, Manjummel Boys, Aadujeevitham, Aavesham, and the currently running Guruvayoorambala Nadayil. It is worth mentioning that Turbo, made with a staggering budget of Rs. 60 crore, stands as the most expensive project in the illustrious career of its leading actor Mammootty, who has also taken on the role of producer under his own production banner, Mammootty Kampany. Dulquer Salmaan’s Wayfarer Films is handling the distribution of this Vysakh directorial in Kerala.
