Last week, Amazon Prime Video dropped the trailer of Sufiyum Sujatayum, a Malayalam romantic movie featuring Aditi Rao Hydari, Jayasurya and Dev Mohan. And while this soulful trailer is a visual treat for all the romance genre lovers, it eventually led me to transcend my language barrier and begin exploring other notable Malayalam movies worth a watch. Here are my top picks for Malayalam romantic movies on Amazon Prime Video Amazon Prime Video, Disney+ Hotstar, MX Player and Jio Cinema.
Directed by Alphonse Puthren, this 2015 movie features Nivin Pauly, Madonna Sebastian, Sai Pallavi and Anupama Parameswaran in lead roles. After his first love ends on a disastrous note, George falls for his college lecturer, Malar. However, when Malar leaves him and gets married to someone else, George meets a girl named Celine. Will the third time be a charm or will it turn out to be a disappointment, weaves the rest of the story.
Before this, the reports claimed that the film was supposed to be released on March 29, 2024. However, that did not happen. The film has received huge praise from the audience and even from different stars in the industry. The movie features Shyam Mohan M, Meenakshi Raveendran, Akhila Bhargavan, Althaf Salim, Matthew Thomas, and Sangeet Pratap in key roles. Apart from the acting skills, the movie also features an alluring soundtrack by Vishnu Vijay.
Helmed and co-written by Girish A.D, the movie falls under the category of romantic comedy and was made on a budget of Rs 4 crores. With a massive positive word of mouth, the movie entered the Rs. 100 cr club and is in fact the only the fifth Malayalam film to enter the club.
The heartbeat of Malayalam romance movies, Premam was a breakout hit that is a bittersweet tale of not one, not two, but three love stories of George, played by the loveable Nivin Pauly. The unconventional beauty of the storyline along with the interwoven connections between the three tales makes it a must-watch for romance enthusiasts.
An ode to undying love that persists through pain and unending suffering, this Mohanlal-starrer was a pioneer of the romantic genre due to it absolving from the tried and tested formula of romance stories. It explores a slowburn development of a romantic connection of Solomon and his neighbour.
Speaking of unconventional, another fan-favourite yet tragic love story is one of Anna and Rasool, played by the enigmatic Fahadh Faasil and Andrea Jeremiah. The journey of falling in love deeply and madly spares none, and when everything pulls them apart, what happens to the relationship?
The undeniable chemistry between Tovino Thomas and Aishwarya Lekshmi is on full display in this tragic story of Mathan, who is on the run after accidentally killing a police officer, and Aparna, an aspiring actress. Mathan takes the danger-laden decision of visiting Aparna before leaving, which has dire consequences.
When Jayakrishnan tries to juggle two lives, one with his friends and one in the village, he finds himself falling for both Radha and Clara and as his worlds collide, problems ensue. Mohanlal takes the lead once again alongside Sumalatha and Parvathi in this highly acclaimed hit.
Nandan is in love with Devi, but circumstances force Devi to marry someone else. Meanwhile, Thara loses her lover Sunny in an accident. As the paths of these two intertwine, they unite in marriage. The lead role is played by none other than Mohanlal, yet again! Truly the face of Malayalam romance and cinema.
This new-age Malayalam love story is laughter-filled, obnoxious, yet strangely heartwarming. Sachin falls for a woman but finds himself at the mercy of a love-triangle, falling into unexpected complications. Will he rise above the obstacles and find the love he yearns for? Starring the modern heartthrob Naslen, this is a fun one.
The latest Malayalam romantic comedy blockbuster Premalu has started streaming in multiple languages on Disney+Hotstar. Besides its original Malayalam version, the film is available for streaming in Tamil, Kannada, and Hindi. In the meantime, the Telugu version of Premalu is available on Aha and OTTplay Premium .
Premalu defied the prevailing trend of short-term theatrical runs for new Malayalam movies. It has become a rare instance to find a movie that has an extended theatrical run amid the growing popularity and influence of OTT platforms.
Especially in the post-pandemic world, streaming services have emerged as a primary source of entertainment for mass audiences. Filmmakers are finding it more and more challenging to whip up spectacle movies that inspire audiences to visit theatres to watch movies, instead of choosing to wait for a few more weeks to watch them in the comfort of their homes.
Premalu's exceptional box office runPremalu exceeded expectations on the box office front. The movie, starring Naslen K. Gafoor and Mamitha Baiju in the lead roles, didn't generate a lot of excitement before its release. However, the film managed to gain a lot of affection with positive reviews and strong word of mouth.
Premalu became Malayalam cinema's first blockbuster in 2024. Superstar Mohanlal's most-hyped movie Malaikottai Vaaliban was expected to set the box office on fire and end the box office dry spell in Kerala. However, it was a small-budget movie featuring a non-star cast that did the trick.
Premalu is a romantic comedy about two young people from distinct backgrounds. Sachin has a crush on Reenu, who is way out of his league. However, he pursues her against all odds, only to be heartbroken. The film is a mindless comedy entertainer with plenty of laughs to offer.
