The year 2025 has been one of the most remarkable years for Malayalam cinema at the box office. From high-budget star films to small yet powerful stories, Mollywood delivered a wide range of movies that impressed audiences both in India and overseas. Several films managed to cross big milestones, while some surprised everyone with their return on investment despite being made on small budgets. At the same time, a few big projects failed to recover their costs, showing the unpredictable nature of the box office. This article looks at the box office verdicts, budgets, and overall performance of Malayalam films released in 2025.
