Not all the films in the above list fetched profit for the producers. But, most of the films like Kerala Varma Pazhassi Raja, Urumi etc., made huge box office collections as well as fetched excellent reviews.

But, Pulimurugan is different and has set many box office records straight away. Going at the present rate, the film might end up being the first Malayalam movie to reach the 100 Crore club.

Following the footsteps of Pulimurugan, another big budget Malayalam movie is all set to hit the theatres. It is none other than Jayaraj's Veeram, which is all set to make it big in Mollywood.

We hope that more and more big budget films would be made in Malayalam and thus expanding the reach of Malayalam film industry.
