Mohanlal's admirers are eagerly awaiting the highly anticipated release of L2 Empuraan, directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran, scheduled for March 27, 2025. In addition to Empuraan, the Malayalam superstar has a number of other films lined up. He has previously confirmed his collaboration with director Jithu Madhavan, known for Aavesham. Recently, it has been announced that actor Sajin Gopu, recognized for his role in Ponman, will also be part of this significant project. Here is a comprehensive overview of what is known regarding the Mohanlal-Jithu Madhavan film, from the start of production to its anticipated release.
Mohanlal-Jithu Madhavan film to release in Onam 2026?
The Mohanlal-Jithu Madhavan film is expected to premiere during Onam 2026. Various industry sources have indicated that filming for this project will commence in August of this year, with an estimated shooting duration of 220 days, or approximately seven months. If the schedule proceeds as intended, audiences can look forward to seeing Mohanlal in a Jithu Madhavan film on the big screen during the Onam festival in 2026.
Similar to his previous collaboration with Fahadh Faasil in Aavesham, this upcoming film is also expected to be an action-comedy. Fans are optimistic for an entertaining experience as Jithu Madhavan teams up with Mohanlal once again.
Sajin Gopu, who gained recognition for his portrayal of the loyal Ambaan in Ranga, the gangster, is reportedly involved in the Mohanlal film as well. He also played a pivotal role in Jithu Madhavan's directorial debut, Romancham, which received positive feedback from younger audiences. With Aavesham, both Jithu Madhavan and Sajin Gopu have established themselves as promising talents in the Malayalam film industry.

Mohanlal’s L2 Empuraan and other upcoming movies
Following the release of L2 Empuraan in March, Mohanlal is set to appear in Thudarum, which is scheduled for release in 2025. Although initially planned for January 30, 2025, the Tharun Moorthy-directed film has been postponed. This film marks a reunion for Mohanlal and actress Shobana on screen. Additionally, Mohanlal has commenced work on Sathyan Anthikad’s Hridayapoorvam, which began shooting on February 10, 2025.
Jithu Madhavan and Fahadh Faasil are, conversely, the producers of Painkili, scheduled for release on February 14, 2025. The film will feature Anaswara Rajan, who recently appeared in Rekhachithram, alongside Sajin Gopu in leading roles.
