Eko
Box
Office
Collection:
The
Malayalam
mystery
thriller
Eko̅,
featuring
Sandeep
Pradeep
in
the
lead,
completed
its
first
weekend
on
a
positive
note
after
releasing
in
theaters
on
November
21,
2025.
Directed
by
Dinjith
Ayyathan
and
written
by
Bahul
Ramesh,
the
film
recorded
noticeable
day-on-day
growth
across
its
opening
weekend,
indicating
steady
interest
among
viewers.
According
to
early
estimates
from
box
office
tracker
Sacnilk,
Eko̅
collected
around
₹5.8
crore
(India
net)
in
its
first
three
days.
The
film
opened
modestly
on
Friday
with
₹0.8
crore,
but
the
collections
improved
sharply
over
the
next
two
days.
Saturday
brought
in
₹1.85
crore,
reflecting
a
substantial
jump
of
over
130%.
Sunday
offered
another
boost,
with
the
film
earning
an
estimated
₹3.15
crore,
marking
its
highest
single-day
figure
so
far.
The
strong
Sunday
performance
contributed
significantly
to
the
weekend
total.
As
the
film
enters
its
fourth
day
today
(Monday,
November
24),
industry
watchers
are
looking
to
see
whether
Eko̅
can
maintain
momentum
on
weekdays,
typically
a
testing
period
for
new
releases.
A
Look
at
the
Film
Set
in
the
mist-covered
landscape
of
Kaattukunnu,
Eko̅
follows
the
lives
of
Mlaathi
Chedathi
and
Peeyoos,
who
navigate
unexpected
challenges
tied
to
the
mysterious
legacy
of
Kuriyachan,
a
businessman,
outlaw,
and
a
figure
whose
influence
continues
to
shape
the
region.
The
narrative
blends
local
lore,
survival,
and
moral
conflicts,
keeping
in
line
with
the
thematic
style
seen
in
director
Dinjith
Ayyathan
and
writer
Bahul
Ramesh’s
earlier
collaborations.
The
film
marks
the
concluding
entry
in
Bahul
Ramesh’s
“Animal
Trilogy,”
following
Kishkindha
Kaandam
and
Kerala
Crime
Files:
Season
2.
Although
each
story
stands
independently,
the
trilogy
is
connected
by
a
common
exploration
of
crime
and
human
behaviour
within
environments
where
animals
and
nature
play
symbolic
roles.
Eko̅
also
represents
the
debut
production
of
Aaradyaa
Studios,
headed
by
MRK
Jhayaram.
Apart
from
Sandeep
Pradeep,
the
cast
includes
Vineeth,
Narain,
Binu
Pappu,
Ashokan,
and
Biana
Momin.
Whether
Eko̅
can
sustain
its
weekend
performance
through
the
weekdays
will
determine
its
long-term
box
office
path,
and
the
coming
days
will
offer
a
clearer
picture
of
its
overall
trajectory.
