Baby Girl Box Office Collection Day 3: Baby Girl, the latest Malayalam thriller featuring Nivin Pauly, hit theaters on Friday, January 23, 2026. Directed by Arun Varma, the movie had big expectations after Pauly’s recent hits. However, the film’s opening weekend numbers tell a different story.
Baby Girl Box Office Collection Day 3: The Numbers

What’s Working and What’s Not?
The Baby Girl box office collection Day 3 saw the film’s best performance yet. Sunday brought an 18% jump in earnings, with theater occupancy hitting 26% across Kerala. Night shows performed even better, reaching 35% occupancy.
However, the film couldn’t cross the ₹1 crore mark on any single day, which is concerning for a Nivin Pauly starrer. The worldwide gross stands at approximately ₹2.75-2.90 crore, including small collections from Gulf countries.
Audience Response
Reviews have been mixed. Viewers loved the first half and praised both Nivin Pauly and Lijomol Jose’s performances. But many felt the second half became too predictable, which may be hurting repeat viewings.
When Will Baby Girl Stream Online?
Good news for OTT fans! Baby Girl will premiere on Sony LIV in late February 2026, after completing its 40-day theatrical run.
With competition from bigger releases like Chatha Pacha (which earned over ₹7 crore on opening day), Baby Girl faces an uphill battle ahead.
