On the day the film made about 2.3 crore net in India bringing the total for two days in India to around 7.65 crore with the worldwide total reaching about 19.9 crore. What is notable here is the drop from the day to the second. A pattern that often shows a film that was driven more by star power and previous excitement rather than people talking about it and keeping the momentum going.
The box office did get a bit better over the weekend itself with Sundays numbers matching Saturdays showing that the first-day energy faded but the movie still kept going.
This is where Khalifa starts to be controversial and where most of the talk about the film has been. The story follows a common structure in Indian gangster movies.
an ordinary man discovers a hidden criminal past gets pulled into a world of crime and must deal with the past and the present alternating between how his family built their criminal empire and how he now has to defend it.
If that sounds familiar it is. On purpose. Khalifa shows its influences clearly bringing up the big action movies of Malayalam directors like Shaji Kailas and Joshiy whose films defined a whole era of the industry.
The problem that some critics and viewers have is that Khalifa reaches for that scale and style without having the same energy that made those older films successful. It relies heavily on tricks, familiar family relationships and a structure that moves between different times without offering much real surprise.
This comparison whether its fair or not ends up being a problem for the film in a lot of reviews. When a movie clearly wants to be next to films like KGF, Vikram, Jailer or Animal in terms of size and appeal it brings the same kind of attention those movies received.
And many reviewers have said that Khalifa doesn’t have enough of its own character to stand beside them. The result as several reviewers have said is a movie that can feel unexciting or generic in parts because its trying too hard to fit into a model that was already used by more unique films in different industries.
The Performances Prithviraj Carries, Others Get Sidelined If there is one part of Khalifa that critics and audiences agree on it is that Prithviraj Sukumaran is giving his all. Multiple reviews point out his performance as the part of the film.
Intense, committed and with real presence in the action and emotional moments. Some pieces of coverage describe his work here as career-defining or at one of his best performances as a mass hero someone clearly trying to make up for the material that doesn’t always match his level.
The reaction to how that cameo appears in the film is mixed and the moment of its reveal seems to have greatly affected how people received it. According to some audience comments the exact nature of the cameo was made public on the second day of release, which effectively ruined what should have been a surprise for later viewers.
One honest piece of audience feedback described sitting up in real shock at the reveal while watching it only to note afterward that once the surprise was ruined for everyone else that wait no way impact was gone for anyone who hadn’t already seen it. That same reaction captured the frustration many felt: the cameo felt like a wasted chance as it could have been placed effectively within the story or given more narrative importance rather than just being a marketing point.
On the positive side other viewers and at least one critic have pointed to the ending cameos. Plural, meaning more than just Mohanlals appearance. As truly exciting, describing the mix of Jakes Bejoys score Prithvirajs intensity and the star cameo payoff as a strong theater experience in the moment even if it doesn’t completely fix the film that leads up to it.
That’s a theme across several reviews Khalifa is, in certain moments a genuinely enjoyable theater experience even as the overall film struggles to keep that energy going for its full length.
review specifically pointed out the films use of predictable tricks and a past-present narrative structure along with only minor real sparks in how it handles its smuggling storyline and father-son relationship aspects.
The review also noted the film relies on shallow character development and unimpressive villains with much of its excitement coming from expected cameos than the storytelling itself.
