After a dull first three months in the box office, Malayalam movie industry has liven up again.
Though movies like "Mili", "Fireman" and "Picket 43" were profitable for the producers, industry lacked a good buzz in theatres; but now back-to-back releases, including "100 Days of Love", "Oru Vadakkan Selfie" and "Ennum Eppozhum", will rock the box office.
According to recent reports, "Oru Vadakkan Selfie" and "Ennum Eppozhum" - which released on 27 March - have managed to get very good theatre occupancy. "100 Days of Love", which released on 20 March, is continuing its success run too.
Most of industry analysts and trackers like Sreedhar Pillai and Ramesh believe that this is a good sign for Malayalam film industry and shared their thoughts on Twitter.
