Thiruvananthapuram, Dec 21: The waning charisma of superstars, a drought at the box office and dearth of new faces...it was another bad year for the Malayalam film industry.
Despite several releases, the three ageing Malayalam superstars - Mammootty, 60, Suresh Gopi, 54, and Mohanlal, 51, - seen as the saviours of the filmdom, failed to bail out the industry that was reeling under flops.
Looking back on their hugely successful three decades, 2011 has not been a pleasant year for the trio.
Mammootty had five releases - 'August 15', 'Doubles', 'The Train', 'Bombay March 12' and 'Venicile Vyapari'; Mohanlal had 'Christian Brothers',.
