The Malayalam horror-comedy Sarvam Maya, starring Nivin Pauly, has emerged as a blockbuster success, crossing the coveted Rs 100 crore mark in global box office collections within ten days of its release. The film, written and directed by Akhil Sathyan, was released during the Christmas holiday season and has quickly become one of the biggest hits of the year.
Industry trackers confirm that the film has performed strongly across domestic and international markets, with Kerala alone contributing close to Rs 50 crore.

The film opened to highly positive reviews from critics and audiences alike, with word-of-mouth playing a crucial role in sustaining packed houses across theatres. Riya Shibu’s breakout performance has also been highlighted as one of the film’s standout elements, adding to its wide appeal.
Nivin Pauly, celebrating the milestone, shared the news on social media with gratitude towards fans. His post read: “Thank you for going delulu over Sarvam Maya! 101 CR Global Theatrical Collection in just 10 DAYS.”
The success of Sarvam Maya marks a significant comeback for Nivin Pauly, reaffirming his position as one of Malayalam cinema’s most bankable stars. For director Akhil Sathyan, the film represents a triumph in blending horror and comedy into a format that resonates with diverse audiences.
With its rapid rise, Sarvam Maya is now being hailed as a landmark achievement in Malayalam cinema, joining the ranks of films that have broken barriers in terms of scale and reach. The film’s performance underscores the growing global appeal of regional Indian cinema and sets a new benchmark for future releases.
