Fahadh Faasil says ‘won’t get half of Rs 300 cr’ as Bethlehem Kudumba Unit earns Rs 326 cr

Fahadh Faasil says ‘won’t get half of Rs 300 cr’ as Bethlehem Kudumba Unit earns Rs 326 cr

The Malayalam film Bethlehem Kudumba Unit has surpassed the Rs 3.3 billion mark at the box office, but the producers, including Fahadh Faasil, are set to receive only a fraction of this revenue. In an interview with Cue Studio, Fahadh explained that the gross collection is not what the producers will actually take home. Roughly half of the worldwide gross goes to international agents, exhibitors, and distributors before any payment to the producers.

Additionally, Goods & Services Tax (GST) is deducted, leaving a smaller amount for the producers. In this case, the remaining amount will go to Bhavana Studios, a joint venture of Fahadh, Dileesh Pothan, and Syam Pushkaran. Despite the reality of their earnings, Fahadh expressed his happiness and pride in the film's success, emphasizing it as a collective achievement.

With Nivin Pauly and Mamitha Baiju leading the cast, the film has become the highest-grossing Malayalam film worldwide, surpassing the previous record held by Lokah Chapter 1: Chandra.
