Reacting to the news, he wrote on social media, “I am deeply humbled and profoundly honored to receive The Dadasaheb Phalke Award.

Recent work
Mohanlal had a disappointing 2024, with the films Malaikottai Vaaliban and Barroz 3D failing to make a mark with critics and at the box office despite being highly publicised. However, he bounced back this year with the releases of L2 Empuraan and Thudarum, both crossing the ₹200 crore threshold at the box office and becoming the highest-grossers in Malayalam cinema, other than Lokah: Chapter 1—Chandra and Manjummel Boys. Vismaya announced in July that she is debuting in Mollywood with Jude Anthany Joseph’s Thudakkam.
