Bigg Boss Malayalam is the regional adaptation of the popular reality show Bigg Boss (originally taken from the Dutch reality programme Big Brother).
As we enter the 7th edition of the Malayalam version, Mohanlal is returning as the host once again, continuing his streak since the show's inception. The reality programme features 20 or more contestants being put into a house together for approximately 3 months.
Over the weeks, the contestants are given several tasks which they have to fulfill for the livelihood needs within the space. Moreover, each week, contestants are nominated among themselves for the elimination process, with a contestant being dropped from the game owing to audience choice.
Up until the 6th season, the show used to start in March, but due to a delay in selecting contestants and Mohanlal being busy with L2: Empuraan promotions, the show was postponed to August 2025.
The official logo of Bigg Boss Malayalam 7 was unveiled on May 21, 2025, coinciding with Mohanlal 's birthday this year. Reportedly, unlike previous seasons, the Malayalam edition will not be reusing sets used for other adaptations, with a dedicated space erected for them in Chennai itself.

Kerala unveils draft film policy; focus on financial framework, gender equality, global presence According to the draft, film production and exhibition will be designated as an industry, enabling access to various incentives and easing financing processes. "The recognition of film production as an industry will bring multiple advantages, enhancing transparency and promoting social responsibility within the sector," the policy stated. The government aims to ensure opportunities for all sections of society to contribute to Malayalam cinema's growth, positioning it as a key global stakeholder and preserving its cultural heritage for future generations. The vision statement outlines the goal of building a strong visual communication ecosystem, ensuring equality across related sectors, and transforming Kerala into a regional production hub by adopting advanced technology and increasing the industry's contribution to the state's GDP. The draft notes that India is the world's largest film producer, with over 2,000 releases annually. Hindi cinema leads with about 400 films a year, followed closely by Malayalam with approximately 300. In 2015, India was the fourth-largest film market globally, with theatrical revenue of USD 2.1 billion. Between 2016 and 2021, the Indian film industry grew at an annual rate of 7.7 per cent. The film industry is optimistic about cinema exhibition prospects this year, with experts estimating theatrical revenue for 2023 in India at around ₹12,000 crore. Kerala alone recorded box office collections exceeding ₹2,000 crore in 2023, the draft said. The policy affirms the government's commitment to continued dialogue with various film industry associations, supporting demands for better wages, job security, medical benefits, and insurance. A general financing incentive scheme for Malayalam cinema will be introduced, with specific provisions for women and marginalised communities. The draft also encourages the production of other Indian languages and foreign films in Kerala. A dedicated film development fund will support promotional and humanitarian initiatives outlined in the policy. A venture capital fund for film production, with private participation and crowdfunding options for socially relevant films, will be created and managed by the Kerala State Film Development Corporation . To promote an equitable work environment, the state will issue detailed guidelines and best practices for the film industry. A single-window film facilitation centre will be established to streamline all shooting-related permits in the state. A Film Development Council, chaired by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and co-chaired by Culture Minister Saji Cherian, with an industry representative as vice-chairman, will be established as the apex body to oversee the development of the film industry. The council will monitor industry activities and recommend policy interventions to the state cabinet as required. The draft policy was distributed among delegates and will be discussed in detail during the two-day conclave, which concludes on Sunday, official sources said.
