Scrub Typhus Latest Update: ఏపీ వ్యాప్తంగా 1537 స్క్రబ్ టైఫస్ పాజిటివ్ కేసులు నమోదు

Hailed as one of the most consistent stars of today, Malayalam superstar Mohanlal has earned widespread appreciation for balancing films like Lucifer on one end and lighter entertainers like Thudarum on the other. However, critical acclaim doesn’t always translate into box office success—a lesson 2025 drove home.

As the year closed, Mohanlal made his fourth big-screen appearance with Vrishaba, a high-budget, VFX-heavy fantasy reportedly costing over ₹80 crores. Expectations were high, with fans anticipating another blockbuster from the veteran actor.

Unfortunately, the film’s lacklustre content failed to impress audiences, and word of mouth quickly turned negative. Released on Christmas Eve (Dec 25), Vrishaba couldn’t capitalize on the holiday weekend, collecting a meagre ₹2 crores in six days. The biggest takeaway is clear: content matters more than stardom, no matter how legendary the actor. Even audiences who cheered for Mohanlal’s hits like Thudarum in 2025 didn’t engage with Vrishaba, marking it as a complete washout.
