South Indian actress Malavika Mohanan, known for her impressive work in Tamil and Telugu cinema, has secured a significant career milestone by teaming up with Malayalam superstar Mohanlal. The actress is set to star in Hridaya Poorvam, a feel-good family film directed by Sathyan Anthikad. This is a fantastic opportunity for Malavika, as it marks her entry into Malayalam cinema, potentially opening doors to more projects in the industry.
The film, produced by Aashirvad Cinemas, will begin shooting on February 10, 2025. Malavika’s role as the lead actress in the film alongside Mohanlal is expected to be a major career boost for her.
Mohanlal’s Busy Lineup Following ‘Barroz’
Mohanlal, the icon of Malayalam cinema, is currently focused on multiple high-profile projects following the box-office disappointment of his directorial debut, Barroz, which is now streaming on Hotstar. His next project, Empuraan (the sequel to Lucifer), is already generating massive buzz. The teaser for Empuraan was released on Republic Day and received an overwhelming response. The film is slated for a global theatrical release on March 28, 2025.
Malavika is also working on other exciting projects like The Raja Saab with Prabhas and Sardaar 2 with Karthi, further strengthening her position in the industry.
