- IndiaGlitz, [Friday,August 03 2007]
Even though a few new releases like Nadhiya Kollapetta Rathri and Veeralipatu arrived last week, they couldn't dislodge the mohanlal starrer Hello from the top spot.
The top five Malayalam films are:
1. Hello - Directors Rafi-Mecartin have presented Mohanlal in an out-and-out comic role. The actor has enthralled audiences with his performance and the film is destined to become one of the biggest successes of the star.
2. Nadhiya Kollapetta Rathri - Another investigative thriller from K Madhu has opened well and is in fact, the movie received the best opening for a Suresh Gopi film, this year. The film which succeeds in keeping the suspense element till the end also proves different with the plot of three killings in a compartment and the backdrops of a running train.
3. Arabikatha - Sreenivasan, once again proves that his slow but steady initial which can save any film with thick content. Lal Jose presents though his film a man who holds leftist ideals close to his heart and is forced to go to the Middle East to earn money. The film has become the most talked about filmi event of recent times.
4. Mission 90 Days - Major Ravi is back with the story of a National Security Guards (NSG) team tracking down the assassins of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi. The film, which has Mammootty in the lead offers a different cinematic approach based on reality, but the film may find it hard to become a success.
5. Sooriyan - The V M Vinu directed Jayaram starrer is still in the list because, the other films that has been released recently even didn't mange to create any openings. Sooriyan may not help Jayaram to resurrect his career in Malayalam
Apart from these PrithvirajÂs Veeralipattu, Babu Thiruvalla's Thaniye and Dileep's July 4 are still in theatres finding it hard to invite in the Masses.
