Thappana Malayalam Movie Review and Boxoffice Collection Report : Starring Megastar Mammootty, Charmy kaur

Review : 
            First of all let me remind you, If you wanna watch this malayalam film "Thappana", then don't go with much expectations.
    "Thappana" starts off with Samson (role played by Mammootty) and Mallika (role played by Charmy) released from the jail. Samson is a local criminal and jail term is not new for him, On the other side Mallika is sentenced to prison for killing a man to save her own husband. After the jail term, Samson develops some soft corner for
Mallika. Some strange incidents led Samson to escort Mallika to her home safely.
    Thappana has a simple story. The first half of the movie is interesting and simple with perfect take off ,logical humour, a beautiful song namely 'Oorum Perum' and fine performance from our megastar mammookka. The second half of  Thappana is as well enjoyable with some extremely beautiful shots of karippa village, some laugh-out-loud comedy sequences and an ordinary climax. I am sure that film won't disappoint you and will be liked by family viewers.
          It is good news for Mammootty Fans that Thappana has received the best word of mouth for any Mammootty film over the past 18 months.

POSITIVES :

          Mammootty
          Comedy sequences
          Cast performance
          Song
NEGATIVES :

          Script
          Predictable Climax - not bad at all
          Old wine in new kuppi

BOXOFFICE :

   Released in 77 theatres in kerala and the first day collection is 70 lacks which is above average opening. Thappana has managed a better public opinion which will help in its long run.
     The film is heading towards 3.5 Crore in the opening week with a distributor share of 1.6 cr.
Its known that there had been only 3 removals after 2 weeks run which is highly encouraging.
    Grossed exactly 3.48 crores from 8 days.Thappana is slowly picking up its collection.
        Thappana is getting steady collections in its second week. Trending looks like the film will ends Mammootty’s long wait for a solid hit.
      5.15 crores from 15 days.
      5.77 crores from 22 days..... RBR effect in collection ;)
      Final collection is figured to be around 7.50 crores. Producer Milan Jaleel himself has stated Thappana as a safe venture and a hit. But Thappana didnt perform in BO as expected.
