Onam Release Malayalam Movies for 2010

Keralites welcome Onam 2010 without any new movie releases from Malayalee’s favorite Mega Stars, Mammootty and Mohanlal. This is because Onam falls in the Ramzan fasting period, and all big releases are planned for perunnal. Going for a movie after the sumptuous Onasadhya is a cherished nostalgia of almost all Malayalees. This year there are no super star movies or big budget movies during Onam 2010.  There are a bunch of low budget movies as well as new comer’s movies releasing during this Onam season. Suresh Gopi has an Onam release movie – Kanyakumari Express.
