Facing Competition but Holding Strong

Given the stable performance at the box office so far and the steady buzz around the film, Maranamass might become a sleeper hit. A sleeper hit is a film that starts with modest expectations but gradually grows in popularity and earnings, often due to positive word-of-mouth.
