He specifically addressed the Telugu and Malayalam films, saying that they are undoubtedly giving tough competition to the Hindi content. However, Madhavan mentioned that all of these are part of certain changes that are coming to films and the way of making them.
Madhavan gave an example of S.S. Rajamouli, saying that the director’s films are always rooted in the ground or based on the history of the small towns in India.

Madhavan then stated that the Malayalam industry has equally witnessed a lot of improvement over the years, saying that their main focus has always been on the characters, the main storyline, and the performances, along with maintaining the limited budget.
Madhavan said that the kind of content the Malayalam industry has given in the last few years is also the reason why big-budget Telugu films have also flopped in certain situations.

Whatever the actor has said in the latest conversation is undoubtedly true. Although there was a film in every language in 2024, it was the Malayalam industry that emerged as the winner, with the best content and the highest number of hit films.
Every filmmaker is nowadays giving their best to offer entertainment and content to the audiences. However, their efforts have failed in most cases, specifically due to a high budget and a weak script.
Producers should now focus on good storylines instead of just investing money. Films like Aavesham and Manjummel Boys are the best examples, proving that even with a limited budget, you can make good films.
