Mohanlal Targets 100 Cr Hat-Trick as Hridayapoorvam Crosses Rs 50 Cr

By TeluguFunda / September 6, 2025

Malayalam superstar Mohanlal has set the box office buzzing once again. His latest release, Hridayapoorvam, crossed the Rs 50 crore global gross mark and made him the first Mollywood actor to score three consecutive Rs 50 crore grossers. This milestone follows the massive success of his earlier blockbusters L2: Empuraan and Thudarum, which both grossed over Rs 200 crore worldwide.

Fans and trade experts now watch closely to see if Hridayapoorvam can hit Rs 100 crore and give Mohanlal his historic hat-trick of Rs 100 crore grossers.

Hridayapoorvam vs Lokah: The Onam Clash

This Onam, Hridayapoorvam clashed with Kalyani Priyadarshan’s Lokah: Chapter 1 at the box office. Lokah dominated with glowing reviews and strong word-of-mouth, becoming the highest-grossing female-led film in South India. Despite the tough competition, Mohanlal’s film held its ground and impressed with its solid performance.

Hridayapoorvam delivers a heartwarming family story filled with humor, emotions, and themes of love, grief, and second chances. Trade analysts say the film could have collected even higher numbers if it had released solo. Still, reaching Rs 50 crore while competing with Lokah counts as a major win for Mohanlal and Malayalam cinema.

Mohanlal Aims for 100 Cr Hat-Trick

Box office trackers predict moderate chances for Hridayapoorvam to cross Rs 100 crore in its full run. The film now relies on Mohanlal’s star power and strong word-of-mouth to pull family audiences after the Onam holidays. Since it is a feel-good drama with limited mass appeal, sustaining momentum remains a challenge. But Lalettan’s massive fanbase could push it closer to the milestone.

Cast and Crew Create a Feel-Good Experience

Director Sathyan Anthikad brings his trademark warmth and simplicity to Hridayapoorvam. The cast, including Malavika Mohanan, Sangita Madhavan Nair, and Sangeeth Prathap, delivers convincing performances. The film offers a smooth narrative and a heart-touching conclusion that leaves audiences satisfied. Antony Perumbavoor produced the film under Aashirvad Cinemas, and Justin Prabhakaran composed its soulful music, making it a complete family package.
