Mohanlal’s ambitious directorial debut, Barroz: Guardian of D’Gama’s Treasure, was one of the most highly anticipated films in Malayalam cinema. A fantasy-adventure film shot in 3D, Barroz promised a grand visual experience rooted in history and folklore. However, despite the hype, the film failed to resonate with audiences.

Malaikottai Vaaliban was envisioned as a grand period spectacle, but despite its ambitious scale and Mohanlal’s powerful presence, it failed to impress audiences. Criticized for its slow pacing, lack of emotional depth, and weak screenplay, the film struggled to engage viewers. Stunning visuals and action sequences couldn’t save it from underperforming at the box office, making it one of Mohanlal’s most notable recent flops.

A unique experimental thriller featuring Mohanlal in a solo act, Alone was expected to be an engaging, unconventional film. However, its minimalistic approach, slow-paced narrative, and lack of gripping moments left audiences underwhelmed.

Released in 2022, Monster was another setback for Mohanlal, following the failure of Aaraattu. The film, despite its intriguing premise, was criticized for its weak screenplay, lackluster execution, and unconvincing narrative twists. Both audiences and critics panned it, making Monster one of Mohanlal’s most disappointing films of the year.
