The film registered 49.32% Malayalam occupancy with 30.01% footfall during the morning show, which was later increased by 44.02% during the afternoon, 56.73% in the evening and 66.53% occupancy during the night.

The film opened in the theatres with Rs 5 crore net in India. Kalamkaval officially surpassed Bazooka, Dominic, and The Ladies' Purse's first-day receipts with Rs 5 crore.
