In July, quite a few promising films are scheduled for release in Malayalam.
While Madhura Manohara Moham (and Neymar did good business at the box office recently, experimental films like Pendulum, O. Baby, and Amala didn’t do wonders. Even Fahadh Faasil’s Dhoomam didn’t connect well with the majority of the audience and critics.
