Neru, the courtroom drama which hit the theatres on December 21, 2023, has emerged as the surprise box office hit of the season. The Mohanlal-starrer, which is helmed by Jeethu Joseph, was released without a massive pre-release hype. However, the excellent reviews and the word-of-mouth publicity have clearly helped the project, which even succeeded in dethroning biggies like Shah Rukh Khan’s Dunki and Prabhas’ Salaar at the Kerala box office.

As Neru completed its first week at the worldwide box office, the Mohanlal-starrer, which was made with a moderate budget, has emerged as a blockbuster. The Jeethu Joseph directorial marked the superstar’s comeback to the success track after a long period of duds.
