Nollywood’s Big Love Outperforms Hollywood Hits at the Box office
Big Love, which was released on June 28, 2023, less than a week ago, has already had a big impact, grossing approximately $20 million. Inkblots’ first release for 2023 made 7.5 million from two days of advance screenings, which was unequivocal proof that enthusiastic viewers were responding favourably to the film.
From June 30 to July 2, 2023, when Big Love made its official debut, it enjoyed a tremendous run that brought in an additional 12 million. The romance movie has outperformed overseas blockbusters like Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, The Flash, and Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse with a total earnings of 19.6 million thus far. Big Love is currently just one step away from controlling the local box office after achieving such a significant feat for a Nollywood film.
There’s no denying that Big Love has won over viewers all over the country. The narrative of the passionate and explosive love between Adil, a young man chasing his dreams, and Adina, a strong and independent woman navigating life at a graduate training camp, is explored in this masterpiece of cinema written and directed by Biodun Stephen.
