Bethlehem Kudumba Unit, featuring actor Nivin Pauly, reported a collection dip as it entered its fourth week at the box office. The film earned Rs 2.10 crore net across Indian markets on day 25 of its theatrical run, signalling a gradual decline in daily revenues.

Despite the slowdown, the Malayalam-language film has maintained a strong overall performance. Its cumulative net collection in India reached Rs 148.50 crore, while the gross box office collection climbed to Rs 173.40 crore across all formats and languages.

The film's sustained performance across the fourth week indicates continued audience interest, though the reduction in daily collections is typical as movies transition from their opening phase to later stages of theatrical release. Industry analysts note that the film's trajectory reflects the typical pattern for Malayalam cinema at the all-India box office.

Bethlehem Kudumba Unit remains one of the notable Malayalam releases to achieve significant box office traction across Indian markets, demonstrating the growing appeal of regional cinema to pan-Indian audiences.
