The comedy drama now holds two great records for this year.
Since debuting in cinemas on April 21, 2023, the comedy drama has grossed over ₦17 million. As a result, the movie now has the biggest opening weekend for a Nollywood film this year.
The Kujus Again is also the number one Nollywood movie in the domestic box office, followed by Domitilla: The Reboot with ₦34 million and Maniac in third place with ₦1.5 million.
With the elections out of the way, which negatively affected previous titles, the movie is expected to rake in some more ticket sales.
Directed by Stephen, the movie is a sequel to Introducing The Kujus (2020), which tells the relatable story of a young woman's love for her family, and how this love reunites her family.
The new film continues the heartwarming, hilarious drama of the Kuju family complete with an engagement and a wedding.
New additions to the movie include Mavin Records CEO Don Jazzy, DJ Big N, Ben Lugo, Sophia Augustine and Lilo Aderogba.
