Mohanlal
is
definitely
going
through
a
purple
patch
with
back-to-back
hits
to
his
credit.
In
fact,
the
decade,
so
far,
has
been
a
mixed
one
for
Mohanlal
with
both
hits
and
flops
to
his
credit.
The
actor
has
delivered
two
industry
hits,
first
in
the
form
of
Drishyam,
released
in
the
year
2013
and
later
in
the
form
of
the
all-time
blockbuster
movie,
Pulimurugan,
which
released
recently.
But,
in
between,
the
actor
had
given
a
few
flops.
At
the
same
time,
it
also
has
to
be
noted
that
some
of
his
quality
movies,
had
to
settle
with
a
hit
tag
alone.
Here,
we
are
listing
5
Mohanlal
movies
of
this
decade,
so
far,
that
deserved
much
more.
Read
on..
Pranayam
(2011)
This
film,
directed
by
Blessy,
is
by
far,
one
of
the
best
movies
of
Mohanlal,
in
this
decade,
so
far.
The
actor
had
given
a
brilliant
performance
as
Mathews
and
the
movie
had
its
heart
at
the
right
place,
while
narrating
a
matured
love
story.
Sadly,
the
film
wasn't
a
big
hit
at
the
box
office.
In
fact,
such
movies
deserve
a
much
better
reception.
Snehaveedu
(2011)
The
film
was
a
success
at
the
box
office,
but
did
it
get
the
desired
result?
Maybe
not.
In
fact,
Snehaveedu
was
one
such
movie,
which
brought
back
the
mannerisms
of
old
Mohanlal.
The
character
had
that
innocence
and
simplicity,
associated
with
the
ones,
which
the
actor
had
done
in
the
past.The
movie
had
to
settle
down
with
a
hit
tag.
Grandmaster
(2012)
We
are
not
saying
that
Grandmaster
wasn't
a
hit.
But,
the
movie
had
the
caliber
and
quality
to
emerge
as
a
blockbuster.
It
is
hard
to
accept
that
the
movie
collected
less
than
Mohanlal's
other
films
like
China
Town,
Loham
etc.
In
fact,
Grandmaster
was
a
quality
investigative
thriller,
which
deserved
a
blockbuster
status.
Red
Wine
(2013)
Red
Wine,
which
had
Mohanlal,
Fahadh
Faasil
and
Asif
Ali
in
the
lead
roles,
is
a
real
under-rated
work.
The
film
was
a
slow-paced
investigative
drama,
which
moves
through
the
different
characters
of
the
film.
Red
Wine,
couldn't
make
a
mark
at
the
box
office
and
went
down
as
a
flop.
Koothara
(2014)
Actually,
Koothara
was
a
movie
about
a
group
of
youngsters
but
Mohanlal,
did
play
an
important
role
in
the
film.
His
character
appears
only
in
the
second
half
of
the
film,
but
he
makes
his
presence
felt.
In
fact,
the
character
of
Usthad
Saali,
was
completely
different
from
the
roles
that
he
had
done
in
the
past.
Koothara,
was
definitely
a
movie,
that
deserved
success.
Anyhow,
the
big
successes
of
films
like
Oppam
and
Pulimurugan,
have
made
this
decade
a
special
one
for
Mohanlal.
He
gave
the
Malayalam
film
industry
its
first
100
Crore
movie
in
the
form
of
Pulimurugan.
Mohanlal's
next
release
is
Munthirivallikal
Thalirkkumbol,
directed
by
Jibu
Jacob.
The
film
would
mark
the
return
of
Mohanlal
to
common
man
roles.
The
film
would
hit
the
theatres
on
December
22,
2016.
