As we said earlier, Malayalam movie industry is not Mollywood now but it is Mohanlalwood. The industry is been witnessing the supreme reign by Mohanlal without any challenge from any other as he remains the box office emperor here in this year too.
It all started in 1986 and still there is no one to challenge or even come closer to him in the box office domination. The evidence is right there when we look at the top 3 highest grossers in Mollywood Cinema History. Now, 3 Mohanlal films occupies the top 3 spots in that list and the competition is between Mohanlal movies.
