Who is this?’ — those questions should come to their mind,” he added.Directed by Dinjith Ayyathan, Eko stars Sandeep Pradeep, Vineeth, Narain Kumar, Binu Pappu, Saurabh Sachdeva, and Ashokan in pivotal roles.DISCLAIMER: The box office numbers in this article are compiled from our proprietary sources and diverse public data.
