Bad news for Mohanlal again
- 07.01.2008
'Hallo', which was released around Onam continues to be the last official hit film from Mohanlal in the year 2007. Five new films were released since then and all of them had only barely managed to recover costs.
It all began with the colossal disaster called 'Ramgopal Varma Ki Aag', which was the remake of the Bollywood classic 'Sholay'. The film flopped within a few days of its release. It's as if RGV's streak of bad lucks has now infected Mohanlal too.
'Alibhai', 'Pardesi' and Rock and Roll' didn't do well at the box office.
Much was expected from the comeback film of director Sibi Malayil. After a ban of a few years, he was returning to Malayalam with a film starring his favorite star in the lead role. 'Flash' was the name of the film and this was supposed to be a thriller. But, reports claim that the film didn't even get a decent opening due to a crowd of new releases that had hit the theatres this Christmas season.
Attention now shifts to his new film with director Tulasidas, 'College Kumaran' which will get released towards the end of this month.
