It was directed by Siddique and was remade in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Bengali. This Mammooty-starrer revolved around ‘Hitler’ Madhavankutty and his five sisters. Mohanlal won the Kerala State Best Actor Award for effortlessly playing ‘Aadu Thoma,’ a local goon with a broken past. Mohanlal and Thilakan’s Spadikam was a smashing box-office hit, grossing more than over ₹5 crore, a huge feat at the time. The film is remembered for its hilarious scene where Manikyan (Mohanlal) is tied to a tree by a group of tribals and he helplessly cries ‘lelu allu lelu allu,’ seeking forgiveness. Directed by Priyadarshan, this is a love triangle between two friends and a young woman they unexpectedly befriend on a journey. This romantic comedy starring Mohanlal and Shobana won two National and five Kerala State Film Awards. Sunny, titled Geetanjali was made in 2013. Shobana bagged both the National and State Awards for her unmatched performance as Ganga and her alter-ego Nagavalli. With dream leads and an exceptional ensemble cast, Manichitrathazhu ’s brilliance in screenplay, dialogues, music and cinematography continue to be lauded even today. Undoubtedly one of the best Malayalam films ever made, this psychological thriller directed by Fazil remains unsurpassed. While Mohanlal’s film was based on a man who sets out to vacate a colony on his company’s demand, Mammooty’s film explored the strained relationship between a father and his young son after the mother’s death. These were the most commercially successful films of 1992.

Siddique-Lal’s Godfather was the other big blockbuster of the year, completing 365 days in a few theatres. Kilukkam was in the theatres for more than 365 days and won five Kerala State Film Awards, including Best Actor for Mohanlal, Second Best Actor for Jagathy Sreekumar, Best Editor for N Gopalakrishnan, Best Playback Singer (Male) for MG Sreekumar and Best Cinematographer for S Kumar. The movie not just exploited the Mohanlal-Jagathy chemistry but every character, from Revathy and Innocent to Thilakan had roles etched with humour.
This hilarious family drama was the highest-grossing film in Malayalam film history when it was released.
