Mohanlal and Mammootty’s Patriot was not meant to be a large-scale movie but it would seem that fate definitely has other plans. The latter had previously proclaimed that he wanted the film to be something Malayalam people love and enjoy more than the rest of India.

With the pre-release sales, it would seem that many people are excited about the duo coming on screen again.

Mammootty and Mohanlal’s Patriot hasn't even released yet and it is already performing well. Set to be released on May 1, the pre-release ticket sales are live and if they assure anything, it is that the film is going to be a big hit.

Since the pre-release sales went live, the film sold 10,000 tickets within minutes. That number gradually skyrocketed. By the time the clock struck 1 pm, that number went to 85,000 as per ETimes.

Patriot has reportedly earned ₹3.5 crore in Kerala itself and over ₹9 crore worldwide in pre-ticket sales alone. As of April 30, the movie has garnered a total of ₹17.50 crores in only half a day. If anything, the movie is only going to grow and grow.

Patriot marks the reunion of Mammootty and Mohanlal after almost two decades, with the film focusing on a retired JAG officer who gets wrongfully accused of espionage and he must do everything in his power to escape the charges and prove his innocence.
