Pranavam Arts
Pranavam Arts is a film production company founded in Thiruvananthapuram by Indian film actor Mohanlal. Pranavam Arts' first production was the 1990 film His Highness Abdullah, which became one of the biggest hits in Malayalam cinema. Pranavam Arts has since produced many successful movies and has earned a reputation as one of the leading production houses in the Malayalam movie industry.[1]
The production company was named after Mohanlal's son Pranav. Its title was later changed to Pranavam Arts International.
Several of the films produced under Pranavam Arts have received National and State Awards. Bharatham and Vanaprastham, the films for which Mohanlal won his only two National Best Actor awards, were produced by Mohanlal under Pranavam Arts.
