Lokesh Kanagaraj’s ‘DC’ Makes Waves in Kerala With Strong Weekday Collections

Lokesh Kanagaraj’s DC is reportedly enjoying a strong theatrical run in Kerala, once again highlighting how compelling content can draw audiences beyond language barriers. The film is said to have collected around ₹45 lakh on its opening day in the state. However, its performance has reportedly improved significantly from the first Monday, with weekday collections said to be more than three times the opening-day figure, potentially taking the film close to the ₹2-crore mark on strong days.

The trend is particularly noteworthy because films generally witness a decline in collections once the weekend ends. In the case of DC, however, audience interest appears to have remained strong through the weekdays, giving the makers a major boost. Industry observers believe the response in Kerala reflects the audience’s appreciation for the film’s content. If the current momentum continues, DC could emerge as one of the highest-grossing Tamil films in Kerala this year, making its state-wise box-office performance a closely watched metric.
