  u forgot Manichithrathazhu, Aniyathipravu and aaram thampuran all three were mega hits when they were released and Vandanam should be dropped because it was only average .. all the other movies u wrote are megahits from 88 to 2003 .. I would modify this as all time box office from
  
  [1988 - 2003.]
  
  1. chithram (1988)
  2. Kilukkam (1991)
  3. Godfather(1991)
  4. Manichithrathazhu(1993)
  5. Aakaashadoothu(1993)
  6. The King (1995)
  7. Hitler(1996)
  8. Aniyathipravu(1997)
  9. Aaram Thampuran(1997)
  10. Narasimham(2000)
  11. Thenkaasipattanam(2000)
  12. Meeshamadhavan(2002)
  13. C.I.D Moosa (2003) - [I'm not pretty sure abt this ,media is projecting as all time but no quality for the movie and regarding collections I think it dropped drasticaly after 60 days.]
  
  u can include C.B.I diary kurippu, Ramji rao speaking, H.H Abdullah, Bharatham, Ente Sooryaputhrikku, Pappayude swantham Appose, Sphadikam(95),Thenmaavin kombathu(94) Friends (99) Niram (99) Chandralekha (97) , Vaatsalyam (93), Devasuram (93) and Raavanprabhu (2001) etc were big hits during this 15 year period in kerala

  Jom ur 20 list is good represents more of 20 year hits but I think u missed Padayottam and Oru Vadakkan Veeragatha
  
  
• From: Jom (@ 61.11.56.237) on: Tue Nov 18 01:21:09 EST 2003
  
  Yes,
  
  We could add Oru Vadakan Veeragadha, Rajavinte Magan & Irupadam Nootandu. Padayottam though a great movie, I think it was not a major box office winner.
  
  I have been looking for the songs of Padayottam for some time now, but I have not managed to get them. Anyone has them??
  
  
• From: Achayan (@ 132.170.140.164) on: Tue Nov 18 01:50:44 EST 2003
  
  but Jom when I saw Prem Nazir's interview in one of the old clippings (Some film division archives) I have seen Padayottam's 200th Day shield. In 1982 the major competition for Popular movie award was between Padayottam and Eenadu those two were the big hits that year. Padayottam was very much hyped and it is the only movie in which Prem Nazir's performance was terrific.!!!
  
  
• From: Achayan (@ 132.170.140.164) on: Tue Nov 18 01:53:10 EST 2003
  
  I dont think "Irupatham Noottandu" comes with all time hits though it was a superhit but "Rajavinte Makan" is for sure I missed that .. if u go to villages Rajavinte Makan is still very popular
  
  
• From: Achayan (@ 132.170.140.164) on: Tue Nov 18 01:55:12 EST 2003
  
  How did u miss "Thenkaasipattanam"??? "Niram" was also super hit but may not come in the all time

  Jome,
  
  Devasuram was Super Hit not Mega Hit. I forgot to write Kilukkam, The King and Manichithrathaazu. Nirakkootu and Yaathra were Mega Hits.
  
  
• From: Jom (@ 61.11.56.237) on: Tue Nov 18 04:25:57 EST 2003
  
  Simi,
  Devasuram is a bigger hit than both Nirakootu and Yaathra... there is no doubt on that point
  
  
• From: simi (@ 213.42.2.16) on: Tue Nov 18 04:26:08 EST 2003
  
  JOme,
  
  Attakkalasham was average in A center, but it was a huge success in B centers. Director of this film Sasi Kumar told in a interview (before 5-6 years).
  
  
• From: simi (@ 213.42.2.16) on: Tue Nov 18 04:30:18 EST 2003
  
  Even I dont have any doubt that Devasuram comes below Nirakkootu and Yaathra
  
  
• From: thomas (@ 150.18.139.152) on: Tue Nov 18 05:40:12 EST 2003
  
  devasuram was megahit than yathra or nirakkoottu........Devasuram should be included all the time in the list
  
  
• From: Kevin (@ 167.206.248.11) on: Tue Nov 18 10:28:40 EST 2003
  
  Chitram and God Father is the biggest hit in the Malayalam film history..
  
  Meesa Madhavan and Narasimham the biggest Box office hits..
