Dominic And The Ladies’ Purse starring Mammootty in the lead role is a box office disappointment. Malayalam mystery comedy thriller directed by Gautham Vasudev Menon, Dominic And The Ladies’ Purse, released on January 23, 2025, with expectations of success. The film is made at a controlled budget and has failed to reach the level of expectation despite the star power of Mammootty.
The film received mixed reviews from critics, which resulted in a lack of buzz in the pre-release phase. It was hoped that strong word-of-mouth would help boost its performance, but audience feedback has been similarly lukewarm. Over the past 9 days in theatres, the film has failed to gain significant traction. It earned a modest 1.75 crores on its opening day but soon saw a decline in its collections.
Having shown an average over the opening weekend, Dominic And The Ladies’ Purse continues to underperform. On day 9, it collected as low as 16 lakh and has now managed to reach a total of 8.03 crore net in India. After adding taxes, the Indian gross stands at 9.47 crores. Overseas too have been bad, with the film collecting a meager 7.05 crore, hence taking the total worldwide gross after 9 days to 16.52 crore.
The film’s below-par performance shows that it might not even go past the 20 crore mark worldwide, thereby making it a huge disappointment. Even with the presence of Mammootty, the film had no interest generated among the viewers and weak word-of-mouth ultimately led to a commercial failure for the film. The prospects look dim for its remaining theatrical run.
