Mounaragam to Aniyathipravu: Malayalam soaps that copied their titles from classic movies
Malayalam TV often takes inspiration from Mollywood movies not only in storylines but also in titles. Here is a list of title of the Malayalam series that have copied the names of popular movies from the south.


Family drama, 'Swayamvaram' starring Shanavas Shanu, Pallavi Gowda, and Amala, is inspired by the title of Adoor Gopalakrishnan's national award-winning movie. The TV series 'Swayamvaram' deals with the life of two friends and how their lives have changed after their respective marriages.

Are there any similarities between the newly launched serial 'Gouri Sankaram' and the 2003 movie starring Munna and Kavya Madhav in the same name? Well, the only similarity between the two is that both are romantic tales and the lead characters have the same names, Gouri and Sankar.

The 1986 movie 'Sukhamo Devi' is surely one of the favorites of every Malayali. The Malayalam serial with the same name has Vivek Gopan, Susmitha, and others playing the lead roles.

Sajan Surya and Binny starrer 'Geetha Govindam' has the same name of Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna movie. When the Telugu movie portrayed the love story of Vijay Govind and Geetha, the Malayalam serial deals with the love between the 40-year-old businessman, Arakkal Govind Madhav and 23-year-old Geethanjali.

Named after the classic Mani Ratnam movie 'Mounaragam', the Malayalam series dealt with the life of a young girl with speech disabilities. Notably, the Naleef Gea and Aishwarya Ramsai series is the most-watched TV show in Malayalam.


Kunchacko Boban and Shalini's Aniyathipravu was a sensational movie in Mollywood. However, the only similarity between the Malayalam serial and the classic movie is that it has portrayed the life of a young girl who is the apple of the eye of her brother(s).


'All started from here.." NAYIKA NAYAKAN ".. celebrating my happiness with this crazy family,' Vincy wrote on her social media account.


Interestingly, the judge of the show, director Lal Jose also commented on the post that he is happy for them.

'We the people of" nayika nayakan,' Nayika Nayakan winner Darshana has also shared some candid pictures from their epic get-together.

'Funtastic night! Here's to many more meet-ups, celebrations, awards, and blah blah blah! I love you to the moon and back, guys,' Venkitesh wrote on Instagram.


Nayika Nayakan was one of the much-loved talent hunt shows on Malayalam TV. Judged by Lal Jose, the show had Kunchacko Boban and Samvritha Sunil as mentors. The show concluded after declaring Shambu and Darshana as the winners. However, more than the winners, it is the other contestants of the show who has got a big break into the industry. Vincy, Venkitesh, Meenakshi, Viswa, and others have already done a handful of movies.
