'Chakkaramuthu' overtakes 'Classmates' in Kerala box office

Kochi, Nov 15 (IANS) Two new releases - "Chakkaramuthu" and "Vasthavam" - change this list a bit, with the former emerging as the top film of the fortnight.

The top five Malayalam films are:

1. "Chakkaramuthu" - Actor Dileep was bound to charm the audiences as a retarded character. The treatment of the character in the film by director Lohithadas may be questionable, but that does not stop the film from topping this list.

2. "Classmates" - Director Lal Jose is riding the crest with the film's stupendous success and may soon bag a couple of prestigious projects.

3. "Vasthavam" - Prithviraj and Padmakumar unite after the critical success of "Vargam" in this realistic film. It remains to be seen how far they can take it.

4. "Pothen Vava" - Mammootty's festive release, directed by veteran Joshiy, with Usha Uthup as his mother is a real treat for his fans.

5. "Bada Dosth" - Suresh Gopi plays a cop-turned don in this film, which is directed by Viji Thampy. Siddique gets a lot of mileage in this film as the villain.
