Aroopi, the Malayalam horror film, released on July 3, 2026. Directed by Abhilash Warrier, the movie revolves around a vengeful spirit trapped in a doll at an old estate, bringing terror to those who disturb it.
Index
It’s a classic supernatural horror setup aimed at fans of the genre in Malayalam cinema. Like several other small regional releases this week, it has had a very quiet start at the box office.
Aroopi opened with very modest collections on its first day. The film has seen an extremely limited theatrical run since its release, with daily earnings remaining low. Latest estimates put the India net at ₹0.08 crore and the India gross close to ₹0.09 crore.
Overseas earnings have been negligible, keeping the worldwide gross at ₹0.09 crore. For a small-scale Malayalam horror thriller with a limited release, the numbers reflect a quiet run mainly in select centres in Kerala.

As more information becomes available, these figures may be updated. While Tenvow strives to provide accurate and timely data, we do not claim that the figures are official or final. They are intended to give a fair indication of a film’s box office performance.
Verdict: A promising start with strong technical work and a relatable lead performance, though it still needs the second half to fully land for most viewers.
Pros:
Well-executed first half with clever twists and tight direction
Prithviraj gives a grounded, believable performance as an ordinary man
Impressive background score and overall technical polish that elevates the tension
Cons:
Close to 2.5 hours, so it demands patience throughout
Second-half reactions are still limited, leaving some uncertainty about sustained pacing

I, Nobody landed in theatres on July 9 with decent expectations. Prithviraj Sukumaran teams up again with director Nisam Basheer — the same team behind the well-received Rorschach.
This time the genre is a crime thriller where Prithviraj plays Rajeevan, a regular government employee whose quiet life gets turned upside down after he witnesses something he was never meant to see.
Parvathy Thiruvothu plays his wife, bringing in the emotional side of the story. The film is also releasing in Tamil and Telugu. The core idea is simple but effective.
An ordinary man gets pulled into a dangerous situation involving crime and accusations. What follows is his struggle to navigate the mess, clear his name, and protect his world.
It plays on that familiar but always interesting thought — how far an everyday person can go when pushed to the edge. No flashy superhero stuff, just a grounded man trying to survive. Early reactions from the first-day shows have been mostly positive, especially about the first half.
People are talking about the tight direction, clean editing, strong visuals, and how Jakes Bejoy’s background score adds real tension and mood to the scenes.
Prithviraj’s performance as the relatable common man is getting good feedback — he doesn’t overdo it and feels believable in the role. The action portions and the interval block have been called out as effective without going overboard.
Many are saying the technical quality stands out and gives the film a polished, almost international feel in parts. That said, it’s still early.
A few viewers are waiting to see how the second half holds up before calling it a complete win. The film runs around two and a half hours, so it does ask for patience in the quieter stretches. Some also feel the basic premise has been seen before in the thriller space, though the execution so far is making up for it.
Overall sentiment right now leans positive and hopeful, particularly among Prithviraj fans who see this as a step back in the right direction after his previous film’s performance.
If you enjoy content-driven thrillers that focus more on situation and character than non-stop masala, this one should work for you. It has enough twists and craft to keep you engaged, and the strong first-half response suggests it’s worth experiencing on the big screen where the sound design and visuals can hit properly.
If you prefer lighter or shorter films, or if you like your thrillers packed with heavy action every ten minutes, you might find parts of it a bit measured. For most people who like smart South Indian cinema, catching it in theatres this weekend looks like a decent choice.
You can always wait for streaming if you want to see how the full word-of-mouth shapes up.

Advance bookings for I Nobody have finally started, and the excitement is building fast. Prithviraj Sukumaran’s upcoming Malayalam action thriller is hitting theatres worldwide on July 9, with Tamil and Telugu versions also ready for audiences. Just two days to go, and tickets are now live on major platforms. The film tells the story of Rajeevan, a regular government employee, husband and father of two who lives a quiet, almost invisible life in the city.
One ordinary day changes everything when he witnesses something he was never supposed to see. What starts as a moment of shock quickly spirals into a nightmare. Branded a troublemaker and hunted by the very system meant to protect him, Rajeevan finds his family at risk and his back against the wall. It’s a classic “nobody” forced to become somebody to survive. Prithviraj steps into this grounded yet intense role, and early reactions suggest he’s bringing that trademark intensity we love.
Parvathy Thiruvothu plays his wife, and their pairing already feels like it will add real emotional weight to the thriller. The supporting cast — including veterans like Ashokan, Vijayaraghavan and others — looks solid too. Director Nisam Basheer, known for tight storytelling, teams up with writer Sameer Abdul and music composer Jakes Bejoy, whose background score is already getting praised in the trailer. The official trailer has been doing strong numbers online, and the film recently cleared the censor board with a clean U/A certificate.
That should help it reach a wider audience across family and multiplex crowds. What stands out in the promos is the mix of personal stakes and high-tension moments — it doesn’t look like your typical larger-than-life action flick. It feels more like a man fighting to protect his world when everything starts collapsing around him. With bookings now open, the rush has begun in Kerala and other major centres.
Overseas markets, including the US, are also getting the film on the same day. If you’ve been waiting for a Prithviraj film that blends emotion with edge-of-the-seat tension, this one seems worth marking on your calendar. Just a couple of days left. Grab your tickets early — these kinds of releases tend to fill up quicker than expected once word spreads.
Uyir is a Malayalam investigative crime thriller directed by M. Padmakumar. The film stars Roshan Mathew in the lead role as a sub-inspector, alongside Baiju Santhosh, Vineeth Thattil David, Divya M. Nair, Athulya Chandra and others. The story revolves around a police investigation, drawing inspiration from real life incidents.
Index
The film opened to a very quiet response at the box office. Being a serious investigative thriller without major star power or aggressive pre-release hype, it received limited screen allocation and failed to create any significant buzz among audiences. The opening day collections were extremely low, and the film has continued to struggle even after four days.
While the subject matter has some potential for a niche audience that enjoys police procedurals, it has not managed to attract the wider family or multiplex audience. Positive word-of-mouth has been almost non-existent in the initial days.

Our Review
Uyir is a realistic crime investigation thriller that attempts to portray the life of a young sub-inspector during his probation period in a sensitive area of Kerala. Directed by M. Padmakumar, who has previously handled intense and grounded stories, the film focuses more on the everyday struggles, moral dilemmas, and pressures faced by police personnel rather than relying on high-octane action or commercial formulas.
Roshan Mathew plays the central character SI Ajeeb, and early indications suggest he has delivered a sincere and restrained performance that suits the realistic tone of the film. The supporting cast, including Baiju Santhosh and Shruthy Menon, add weight to the narrative. The film’s biggest strength lies in its attempt to stay rooted and authentic. By drawing from real incidents, it tries to highlight the challenges of policing in border regions and the personal toll it takes on officers.
The screenplay focuses on investigation procedures, human emotions, and the grey areas of law enforcement instead of sensationalising the subject. However, this very realistic approach seems to have worked against it at the box office on the opening day. In the current market, even well made content driven films struggle if they fail to generate sufficient pre-release excitement or strong early word-of-mouth.
At the box office, Uyir has opened to a very quiet response. Advance bookings were limited, and theatre occupancy on Day 1 is reported to be quite low across most centres in Kerala. Unlike big-star-driven Malayalam films or those with massive pre-release hype, this film is completely dependent on positive reviews and audience recommendations to survive. If the content is genuinely engaging and word-of-mouth spreads positively over the next two days, it may see some improvement during the weekend.
However, if the early feedback remains average or mixed, the film will find it very difficult to sustain in theatres. Compared to other recent Malayalam crime thrillers that managed to create buzz through strong storytelling or powerful performances, Uyir appears to be missing that crucial connect with the audience right now.
The lack of aggressive promotion and the realistic, non-commercial tone might be limiting its immediate appeal among regular moviegoers. For the film to have any chance of a decent run, it will need excellent reviews and strong audience appreciation, especially in Kerala. As of now, Uyir is off to a very slow start and will require a significant turnaround in the coming days to avoid an early exit from theatres.

Ananthan Kaadu is a Malayalam – Tamil bilingual political action thriller that released on 25 June 2026. Directed by Jiyen Krishnakumar and written by Murali Gopy, the film stars Arya in the lead role alongside Murali Gopy, Indrans, Regina Cassandra, Nikhila Vimal, Sunil, Vijayaraghavan, Dev Mohan and others.
Index
The film opened on a moderate note for its genre. It collected around ₹0.74 crore gross on Day 1 (India Net ₹0.65 Cr), which was decent considering it is a mid-scale political thriller. The Malayalam version performed better than the Tamil version in the initial days, with Kerala contributing strongly.
Collections dropped on Day 3, which is typical for political dramas unless they generate strong word-of-mouth. As of 29 June (Day 5), the film has shown a steady but declining trend. It has not been able to maintain its opening momentum.

Our Review
Ananthan Kaadu is a content-driven Malayalam film that attempts to explore themes rooted in rural life and human emotions. Early reactions suggest that the film carries a sincere tone and benefits from strong performances by the lead cast. The narrative focuses on relationships, traditions, and personal struggles, which has found some appreciation among audiences who prefer realistic storytelling over high-octane commercial cinema.
While the film has its share of slow moments, the emotional core and authentic portrayal of characters have been highlighted as its strengths. It stands as a typical example of the new wave of Malayalam cinema that prioritizes content over mass elements. At the box office, Ananthan Kaadu opened to modest collections on its first day, which is typical for many content-driven Malayalam films without big-star backing.
The opening was decent in Kerala but remained very limited in other states. In comparison to other recent Malayalam releases, it has shown average initial traction, largely driven by positive word-of-mouth rather than aggressive marketing. With no major competition in the immediate days ahead, the film has a fair chance of sustaining its run if the content connects well with family audiences.
Its long-term prospects look better on digital platforms, where realistic dramas often find a dedicated viewership. Overall, Ananthan Kaadu appears to be a safe, content-focused release that may not create waves at the box office but could find appreciation among those seeking meaningful cinema.

Our Review
Lady with the Wings is a drama thriller that attempts to tell the story of a strong-willed working-class woman whose life falls apart after her partner’s betrayal. Directed by Sofie Titus, who also plays the lead role, the film carries a grounded and realistic tone. While the premise has the potential to connect with audiences, especially women, the film has failed to generate any meaningful pre-release excitement or curiosity.
At the box office, Lady with the Wings has opened to a near-complete washout. Most theatres are reporting extremely low or almost zero occupancy, which clearly shows that the audience has not shown any interest in watching the film on its opening day. In a competitive release week, this small-scale Malayalam drama is struggling badly to attract even the minimum footfalls. For a film of this scale, the initial numbers are highly disappointing.
Unless it receives exceptionally positive reviews and generates strong word-of-mouth in the coming days (which looks unlikely given the current response), it will find it very difficult to sustain in theatres. Compared to other recent Malayalam dramas that sometimes manage to create some initial interest through strong content or better promotion, Lady with the Wings appears to be missing that crucial connect.
As of now, it is off to a disastrous start and looks headed for a flop verdict. The coming days will decide whether it disappears from theatres within the first week or manages any minimal recovery.

Aroopi arrived in theatres today as one of the more interesting horror experiments in recent Malayalam cinema. Directed by Abhilash Warrier, it stars Vysakh Ravi and Neha Chawla in the main roles, with veteran Joy Mathew playing a crucial part.
The film mixes folklore with a present-day supernatural setup, and early audience reactions suggest it has managed to create a decent amount of fear for those who like this genre. The story moves between two timelines, one from over a century ago and another in the present.
At its core is a vengeful Yakshini spirit connected to an old doll and an ancestral estate. When that spirit gets unleashed, it pulls ordinary people into a terrifying situation. The film keeps things simple in its setup and focuses more on building dread than on heavy explanations.
From what people are saying after the first shows, many came out admitting they felt properly scared at several points. The way the film uses traditional Yakshini folklore has been praised by quite a few viewers for giving the horror a rooted, unsettling feel instead of relying only on jump scares. Joy Mathew’s presence and the overall atmosphere seem to have worked well for the audience.
Some also liked how the two timelines connect without becoming too confusing. That said, reactions are not entirely one-sided. A section of viewers felt the story leans on some familiar horror patterns after a point, and the tension dips in the middle.
A few mentioned that while the scares land, the emotional side or character depth could have been stronger. Overall, the early buzz is positive among horror fans but more average for those expecting something completely fresh.
If you enjoy supernatural horror with a folklore touch and don’t mind a slow build-up, Aroopi should work as a decent theatre watch. The big screen helps with the mood and sound design. However, if you’re not a big horror person or prefer tighter, more original scripts, this one might feel only okay and can wait for streaming.
The production budget has not been officially confirmed by the makers.

If you’ve been following the buzz around Naslen’s latest, Mollywood Times is finally heading to your screens at home. The film that released in theatres on June 5 has been one of the more talked-about Malayalam releases this summer, and its digital premiere is just around the corner.
Directed by Abhinav Sunder Nayak and written by Ramu Sunil, Mollywood Times is a psychological dark comedy that doubles as a sharp yet affectionate look at the film industry. Naslen plays Vineeth Madhavan, a young man from Kuttikkanam with big dreams of becoming Mollywood’s next big horror director.
What starts as a coming-of-age story quickly turns into a funny, sometimes biting commentary on the realities, absurdities, and quiet struggles inside the industry. It’s not just about one boy’s ambition — it’s about friendship, family expectations, and what happens when passion meets the messy business of making movies.
Theatres gave it a warm response. Audiences and critics have praised Naslen’s easy, lived-in performance and the way the film balances humour with genuine emotion without turning preachy. The supporting cast, including Sharafudheen and Sangeeth Prathap, adds plenty of colour, and the music (Jakes Bejoy) has been landing well with listeners.
At roughly two-and-a-half hours, it’s a bit long for some, but most people are walking out saying it feels fresh and oddly comforting. Now for the good news: Mollywood Times is set to stream on JioHotstar from July 3, 2026. It will be available in Malayalam with English subtitles, along with dubbed versions in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Hindi right from day one.
That makes it accessible for a much wider audience across India and for many viewers abroad who follow Malayalam cinema. For those watching from the US or other international locations, JioHotstar remains the primary platform for now. Many diaspora families already have access through their subscriptions, and the multi-language dubs should help bring in newer viewers.
If you’re used to catching Mollywood on Netflix or Prime Video, this one might land there later, but July 3 on JioHotstar is the confirmed first stop. Whether you caught it in theatres or have been waiting for the home release, this looks like one of those films that rewards a relaxed watch with family or friends.
It’s funny, a little nostalgic, and carries that signature Mollywood warmth even while gently roasting the industry it comes from. Mark your calendar for July 3 — Mollywood Times is almost ready to stream.
Chinna Chinna Aasai is a gentle Malayalam romantic drama that opened in theatres on 19 June 2026. Directed by debutant Varsha Vasudev, the film stars Indrans and Madhoo (credited as Madhubala) in the lead roles, with Aparna Balamurali, Jaffer Sadiq, Vishnu Agasthya, Thambi Ramaiah and others in key supporting parts.
Index
Set against the timeless ghats of Varanasi, it tells the story of two strangers who cross paths and slowly build a quiet, meaningful connection through shared walks, simple meals and long conversations by the river. The film carries a soft, reflective tone rather than high drama, focusing on companionship, small joys and the little dreams that keep people going.
It made a modest start at the Indian box office. With a limited theatrical release and no big-star marketing blitz behind it, the opening day figures stayed low at around ₹0.20 crore. The audience in the initial days was mostly confined to Kerala and a few urban centres where viewers look for content-driven stories.
Overseas markets barely registered any numbers, which is quite normal for this kind of intimate, dialogue-heavy Malayalam drama that doesn’t have mass action or dubbed versions pushing it in other territories. Still, early reports suggested that those who watched it came out with warm hearts, and word-of-mouth started spreading in its own quiet way.

Chinna Chinna Aasai is a Hit or Flop
To be updated
What is the budget of Chinna Chinna Aasai
The estimate budget is ₹5 Crore.
Our Review
Chinna Chinna Aasai is a gentle, emotional drama that focuses on human connections and the beauty of unexpected relationships. Directed by debutant Varsha Vasudev, the film is set against the serene and spiritual backdrop of Varanasi’s ghats. It brings together veteran actors Indrans and Madhoo in lead roles, with strong supporting performances from Aparna Balamurali, Thambi Ramaiah and Kaali Venkat.
The story revolves around two strangers who cross paths and spend a meaningful day together, sharing conversations and simple moments by the river. The film attempts to celebrate life’s small joys and the magic of chance encounters. Music by Govind Vasantha adds emotional depth to the narrative. While the intention and the performances are sincere, the film lacks strong dramatic conflict or mass elements, making it a quiet, slow-paced experience that may appeal more to audiences looking for content-driven cinema rather than commercial entertainment.
From the box office point of view, Chinna Chinna Aasai has delivered a very poor opening. With almost negligible advance bookings and very limited screen count, the film is struggling badly on its first day. Being a small, content-oriented bilingual drama without any major star power or aggressive marketing, it has failed to create any significant buzz among audiences. In today’s market, where even mid-budget films need strong content, marketing, and some mass appeal to survive, a film like this has very little chance of making any theatrical impact.
Unless there is some unexpected positive word-of-mouth from a niche audience (which looks unlikely at this stage), the film is headed for a disastrous run. It will most likely end up as a flop and will have to rely completely on digital and satellite rights for any recovery. This release once again highlights how difficult it has become for small, debut-driven, content-oriented films to find an audience in theatres without strong backing or commercial elements.

Secret of Kalinga is a Malayalam movie, released on 18 June 2026 starring Dhyan Sreenivasan, Althaf Salim and Malavika Menon. The horror-comedy mystery Secret of Kalinga opened to a very quiet response at the Indian box office.
Index
A small-scale Malayalam film directed by Saneesh Unnikrishnan, it revolves around a college built on ancient Kalinga land where students accidentally awaken a spirit trapped in a sealed well. The film received limited theatrical exposure and failed to generate any significant pre-release buzz.
On the worldwide front, Secret of Kalinga registered negligible overseas collections. As a low-profile regional Malayalam release without major star power or aggressive international marketing, its appeal remained confined to a handful of screens in Kerala with almost no meaningful presence among the Malayalam diaspora.

Our Review
Secret of Kalinga delivers a fun-filled horror-comedy experience that cleverly mixes mystery, fantasy and campus chaos. The plot revolves around college students who accidentally awaken an ancient spirit from a sealed well linked to the historic Kalinga kingdom on New Year’s Eve, triggering a series of spooky yet hilarious events. Dhyan Sreenivasan leads with a strong, relatable performance that balances comic timing and emotional layers, while Althaf Salim provides excellent support with his natural flair for comedy.
The supporting cast including Riyaz Khan and Malavika Menon adds depth, making the ensemble feel authentic. Director Saneesh Unnikrishnan keeps the narrative engaging with a light tone that avoids excessive gore, focusing instead on adventure and humor. The film draws comparisons to earlier Malayalam genre blends like light-hearted horror comedies that succeeded through strong character moments and theater-friendly twists.
Some technical elements, particularly the heavy use of AI-assisted visuals, have received mixed feedback, yet the overall package remains entertaining for audiences seeking a breezy weekend watch. The historical Kalinga reference adds an intriguing layer without overwhelming the fun, making it accessible to younger viewers and families alike. At the box office, Secret of Kalinga has registered modest numbers in its opening days, largely due to its targeted release strategy and the competitive environment for mid-budget Malayalam films.
Despite the slow start, audience reception has been notably positive, with strong ratings on platforms like BookMyShow reflecting genuine appreciation for its engaging story and crowd-pleasing moments. This word-of-mouth could help the film hold better in the coming days, especially during weekends when family audiences step out. Compared to recent content-driven Malayalam releases that built steady legs through positive buzz, Secret of Kalinga shows similar potential to grow beyond its initial figures.
Looking ahead, if occupancy improves and the film expands to more screens, it could achieve a respectable lifetime India gross in the range of ₹1-2 crore, turning it into a profitable venture through theatrical runs supplemented by strong satellite and digital value. The evergreen appeal of its genre mix positions it well for long-term audience connect, with predictions favoring gradual improvement rather than explosive growth. For viewers wondering whether to catch it in theaters, the current positive sentiment makes it a worthwhile option for those who enjoy horror-comedy with heart.

Our Review
Sathyathil Sambhavichathu is a comedy-mystery film directed by Prasanth Mohan that stars Akash Menon and Dilshana in the lead roles. The film revolves around a long-standing village legend about hidden treasure beneath ponds and wells, with only one man ever claiming to have found it. The story blends elements of comedy, mystery and drama, which is a popular combination in Malayalam cinema.
With supporting actors like Dileesh Pothan and Johny Antony, the movie attempts to deliver an entertaining narrative that mixes humour with suspense. Malayalam audiences have shown strong support for well-made comedy and mystery films in recent years, especially those that are rooted in local culture and settings. Sathyathil Sambhavichathu appears to follow this trend by focusing on a village-based story with quirky characters and an intriguing premise.
At the box office, Sathyathil Sambhavichathu has opened to below-average collections. The numbers are modest even for a mid-scale Malayalam release, which indicates that the film has not been able to generate significant excitement among audiences during its opening phase. With such a start, the movie will now need very positive word of mouth and strong reviews to sustain in theatres over the weekend.
Compared to other recent Malayalam comedy films that managed to create better pre-release buzz, this film appears to be struggling to find its audience. If the humour and mystery elements work well with viewers, it has the potential to grow gradually. However, if the content fails to connect strongly, it may find it difficult to recover its budget theatrically. For a film of this scale, the coming days will be crucial in determining its final verdict.

Mollywood Times is a Malayalam film that released in theatres on 5 June 2026. Directed by Abhinav Sunder Nayak, the film stars Naslen in the lead role along with Sharafudheen, Sangeeth Prathap and others. It is a dark comedy that takes a satirical look at the struggles and realities of the Malayalam film industry.
Index
The film opened to a decent response, particularly in Kerala. It benefited from positive word-of-mouth among cinephiles and Naslen’s popularity. While the collections are not massive, it has performed well for a content-driven film without a big star cast or high budget.

What is the budget of Mollywood Times
Budget: ₹8–12 Crore (estimated)
Our Review
Mollywood Times is a sharp and satirical take on the Malayalam film industry. The film follows a young aspiring filmmaker’s journey and the harsh realities he faces while trying to make his dream project. Naslen delivers a strong and relatable performance that anchors the film.
The dark humour and honest portrayal of the struggles in the industry have been appreciated by audiences and critics alike. While the second half slows down a bit, the film maintains its edge with clever writing and good performances from the supporting cast.
It is not a typical mass entertainer but succeeds as a smart, self-aware drama that cinephiles will enjoy. At the box office, Mollywood Times has opened on a decent note for a mid-budget content film. It registered a good opening in Kerala and has shown steady collections over the first few days.
The film is performing well among its target audience and has the potential to grow with positive word-of-mouth. With a modest budget, it does not need massive numbers to be profitable.
If it sustains its current pace and benefits from good reviews, it can have a decent theatrical run. For Naslen and the team, this is a respectable start.
The film is currently on track to be an average to above-average performer and could emerge as a profitable venture if it maintains momentum in the coming weeks. It stands as another example of content-driven Malayalam cinema finding its audience even without big stars.
