Malayalam heroes should be taken as role models

All the top heroes of Tollywood are focusing on pan-Indian projects. They are very selective and are charging huge remunerations. It has become difficult for top heroes like Mahesh Babu, NTR, Ram Charan, Allu Arjun to give even one film a year. Each of them is going to release only one film in the next two years. Only Prabhas is busy with multi-projects. Our producers are explaining this difficult reality to the heroes and are pressuring them to do as many films as possible to make the film industry more reactive.

But... superstars in the Malayalam film industry are doing 3-4 films every year and giving huge hits. A star like Mohanlal has given blockbusters like ‘L2: Empuraan’ and ‘Thudaram’. These two films were released in just two months and became the biggest hits in the Malayalam film industry. Mohanlal is doing 3-4 films a year and is finalizing projects for the next two years. Similarly, Mammootty has also given back-to-back hits in the last two years with impressive films like ‘Christopher’, ‘Kannur Squad’, ‘Bhramayugam’ and ‘Turbo’.

Along with them, actors like Prithviraj Sukumaran, Fahadh Faasil, Dulquer Salmaan, Joju George, Kunchacko Boban and Nivin Pauly are also doing films in a row. The Malayalam film industry works in a very organized manner with tight budgets and well-planned release dates. Compared to the Telugu film industry.. Malayalam people are making more films with smaller budgets and are inspiring other language actors in the country to do compact filmmaking and complete more films every year.
