Thomas
has
found
a
place
in
the
top
5

has
emerged
as
one
of
the
most
bankable
young
actors
of
the
Malayalam
film
industry.
The

half
of
2017,
witnessed
the
arrival
of
2
movies
featuring
him
in
the
lead
role.
The

Prithviraj
Prithviraj,
just
had
one
release
in
the
first
half
of

but
that
movie
was
solely
enough
to
prove
his
amazing
star
power.

month
of
February
emerged
as
a
super
success
at

Dulquer
Salmaan
Dulquer
Salmaan
has
had
an
amazing
2017,
so
far.
Two
films
of
the
actor
graced
the

half
of
the
year
and
both
the
movies
emerged
as
superhits

recent
one
was

to
be
believed,
Jomonte

the

Mohanlal
Mohanlal
continued
his
dream
run
from
the
year
2016
and
started
off
2017
with
Munthirivallikal
Thalirkkumbol,
which
reportedly,
crossed
the
50-Crore
mark
at
the
box
office.
He
once
again
proved
his
star
power
with
the
huge
success
of
the
film.
But
later,
his
second
release
of
the
first
half
of
2017,
1971
Beyond
Borders,
failed
to
make
the
necessary
impact
as
the
film
grossed
less
than
10
Crores
at
the
box
office.

Mammootty
Mammootty
had
a
forgettable
2016
but
the
year
2017,
started
off
in
an
amazing
fashion
for
the
actor,
with
the
star
in
him
regaining
the
power
and
form.
The
actor's
2
movies
made
it
to
the
theatres
in
the
first
half
of
2017.
The
Great
Father,
the
actor's
first
film
to
hit
the
theatres,
raced
ahead
at
the
box
office
with
the
film
reportedly
having
crossed
the
60-Crore
mark
at
the
worldwide
box
office.
But
his
second
film
Puthan
Panam
failed
to
make
a
big
mark
at
the
box
office.
But,
the
phenomenal
success
of
The
Great
Father,
which
was
made
with
a
budget
of
6-Crores,
has
taken
him
to
the
top
spot.
