Malayalam actor and producer Unni Mukundan has depicted in films that are made of huge genres throughout their career. But it was Marco, a new-nine action thriller who inspired him to national fame. The film broke several records, which became the first Malayalam A-Retted film to cross the Crore 100 million mark globally. As a follow -up of this massive hit, Unni Mukundan attempted to shift the gear with a lighted family entertainer, the gate set baby, who received a clean ug certificate. The very shocking thing is that the film is struggling very much at the box office.
Earlier, for its intensive action sequences and gripping performances, Marco enchanted the audience, even in the Hindi market, it became the highest grossing Malayalam film at the Bollywood box office. However, despite its positive theme and nutritious material, the gate set baby has now failed to impress the audience, earning only offer from the global box office in its early weekend.
Along with the lack of strong promotion, a limited pre-localize buzz made a slow start, but mixed reviews further enhanced its performance. Interestingly, Malayalam audiences usually prefer a light, family friendly cinema and they do not embrace the gate set baby; But Marco dismissed expectations with his dark, action-rich tale and achieved unprecedented success.
On that note, it seems that the set baby’s box office performance highlights the unexpected nature of the reception of a film, where the established actors face challenges in maintaining speed. Earlier, a similar situation occurred with Telugu star Nani, whose action -packed Dasra marked her first film of 100 crores, but her subsequent film, Hi Nanna, a emotional family drama, less despite the widespread promotion Opened for box office number. However, Hi Nanna left through good words and collected a collection, although not in the border of Dasra. Conversely, the set of UNNI Mukundhan cannot pick up baby traction, making its box office conflict more clear.
As the business looks closely, Unni Mukundhan now faces the challenge of carefully choosing its next projects to maintain its Newfound Stardom after Marco. Whether it raises action-pack roles or continues to experiment with diverse styles, those options will be important in shaping their stardom at the box office.
