This was what Mohanlal said at the trailer launch of Barroz, his directorial debut, in Mumbai early this week. As the December 25 release date of Barroz nears, the tension in the air is palpable. Made on a budget of over ₹100 crore—it is one of the most expensive Malayalam films to have been made—the success of Barroz, produced by Aashirvad Cinemas, will have a positive impact on a slew of big-budget films lined up for release in 2025.
Prithviraj's Empuraan, shot for ₹150 crore and slated for release in March 2025, is one of them. Mammootty-starrer Bazooka and Mahesh Narayanan's film, currently being shot in Sri Lanka and having Mohanlal, Mammootty, Kuchacko Boban and Fahadh Faasil, are the other mega-budget films slated for release in 2025.
The year 2024 was one of mixed fortunes for big-budget Malayalam films. While Lijo Jose Pellissery's Malaikottai Vaaliban, starring Mohanlal, could collect only around ₹30 crore against its budget of ₹65 crore, Blessy's directorial Aadujeevitham—The Goat Life, made for ₹82 crore, collected an estimated ₹158-₹160 crore, as per reports.
