Prithviraj Sukumaran’s latest Malayalam release, I, Nobody, has begun its theatrical journey with a respectable opening at the Kerala box office. According to early trade estimates, the action thriller earned approximately Rs 2.25 crore nett on its first day, giving the film a steady foundation as it heads into its crucial opening weekend.
While the opening figure may not rank among the biggest starts in Prithviraj’s career, industry observers believe the film still has room to build momentum. The movie entered cinemas with relatively modest advance bookings, making its opening-day performance a closely watched indicator of audience interest.
What could work in the film’s favor is the encouraging response from viewers who attended the first shows. Early reactions have highlighted the film’s suspense-driven narrative, performances, and technical execution. Positive word-of-mouth often plays a decisive role in the Malayalam film industry, where strong content can significantly boost collections after release.
Directed by Nisam Basheer, I, Nobody arrives at a time when the Kerala box office is not facing major competition from other large-scale releases. This gives the thriller an opportunity to attract audiences seeking a fresh cinematic experience during the weekend.
Trade circles will now closely monitor whether the film can register healthy growth over Saturday and Sunday. A strong weekend performance could improve its long-term prospects and help it establish a stable theatrical run across Kerala and other markets.

For Prithviraj Sukumaran, the performance of I, Nobody carries additional significance. The actor remains one of Malayalam cinema’s most recognizable stars, and the film’s success could reinforce his box office standing after a mixed commercial phase for some recent releases.
Beyond its lead cast, the film features Parvathy Thiruvothu in a prominent role alongside Hakkim Shahjahan, Ashokan, Vijayaraghavan, Madhupal, Shankar Ramakrishnan, Nishanth Sagar, Nandhu, Noushad Bombay, Jijoy Rajagopal, and Khalid Rahman.
The production is supported by a strong technical team. Jakes Bejoy has composed the film’s music, Dinesh Purushothaman handled cinematography, and Ramees MB served as editor. Their combined efforts contribute to the thriller’s atmospheric tone and cinematic presentation.
As the weekend unfolds, all eyes will be on whether I, Nobody can convert positive audience feedback into stronger box office numbers. If the film maintains momentum and records consistent occupancy levels, it could emerge as one of the notable Malayalam releases of the season.
