The latest Malayalam blockbuster, Manjummel Boys, is breaking new ground at the box office as it continues to garner good reviews from critics and audiences. Last week, the Telugu version of Manjummel Boys was released in cinemas , with the film's cast and crew making an excellent effort to spread awareness about the movie in the Telugu states.

The film was released by Mythri Movie Makers and, as expected, it received good reviews from the critics. According to reports, the film has struck a chord with multiplex audiences. However, the film's potential has been limited with fewer screenings on single screens, effectively preventing the movie from reaching a larger audience. "Extra shows are being added in multiplexes all over. Day 2 is seeing double the numbers of Day 1 at the box office," claimed the distributors in the Telugu states.

Manjummel Boys triumphs in Telugu cinemas

It's noteworthy that Manjummel Boys is making a dent in a new territory, which has historically steered clear of Malayalam movies in cinemas. The movie is drawing local audiences even as there are two new Telugu films, Family Star and Tillu Square, playing in cinemas.

A video showing the reaction of Telugu audiences to the high-voltage climax sequence of Manjummel Boys has gone viral on social media. The iconic song Kammani Ee Premalekhani, the Telugu version of Kanmani Anbodu Kadhalan, has managed to receive the same amount of cheer from Telugu audiences as it did from Tamil audiences.

The song Kammani Ee Premalekhani, from Tamil superstar Kamal Haasan's Gunaa, played a very important role in making Manjummel Boys a huge hit at the box office in Tamil Nadu. The film earned more than Rs 50 crore, making it the biggest Malayalam hit ever in Tamil Nadu. Can the film recreate the same magic with Telugu audiences?
