4 Months, 750 Cr: Unexpected Winner

Usually, the Malayalam film industry is not known for big money grossers at the box office. Their films have superior writing and technical finesse but the box office reach is limited. But that is not the case anymore. Come 2024, Malayalam cinema is on a rage.

With multiple box office blockbusters like Bramayugam, Premalu, Manjummel Boys(new all-time blockbuster), Aadujeevitham, and new releases Aavesham and Varshangalkku Shesham, Malayalam cinema has grossed over Rs 750 crore at the box office.

In a new high, the film industry delivered three 100+ Cr grossers this year in the form of Premalu, Manjummel, and Aadujeevitham. These films have pushed up the stakes for Malayalam cinema not just down South but also in all of India.

From being termed just a genre film industry, Malayalam cinema has become an unexpected winner by setting the box office on absolute fire this year.

At a time when mainstream big-league industries like Bollywood and Tollywood are struggling to deliver big box office winners in 2024, an unlikely winner has emerged and is ruling the roost.
