Most of her movies were commercially successful as well, with Aaram Thampuran and Pathram being the highest grossing Malayalam films in the years 1996 and 1999 respectively.[ 23]
Her last film before she took a sabbatical from films was Kannezhuthi Pottum Thottu .[ 24] [ 20] [ 17]
Professional return and comeback to the movies (2012–2014)
Manju took a hiatus from films after marriage to Dileep and on 24 October 2012, Manju returned to the stage to perform a Kuchipudi dance recital at the Navaratri Nritha Mandapam in the Guruvayur Sree Krishna Temple , in front of hundreds of spectators.[ 25] [ 26] [ 27]
Later in July 2013, she acted in a commercial for Kalyan Jewellers with Amitabh Bachchan . She also acted alongside Nagarjuna Akkineni , Prabhu Ganesan and Shiva Rajkumar in Telugu, Tamil and Kannada versions of the same ad-film.[ 28] [ 29] [ 30] She continued to appear in many advertisements and stage performances.[ 31] [ 32] The same year she published a book titled Sallapam that was "a series of memoirs of her life".[ 33] [ 34]
She made her much awaited comeback to movies after 15 years in 2014 with Rosshan Andrrews 's How Old Are You ? .[ 35]
2015–present
Manju's next film was Sathyan Anthikad 's Ennum Eppozhum which reunited her with Mohanlal after a gap of 17 years.[ 36] Her next project was Rani Padmini by Aashiq Abu along with Rima Kallingal , released in October 2015. Despite not faring well at the box office, it has been considered an 'underrated gem' of a movie that celebrates female friendships.[ 37] She appeared as an animator in Jo and the Boy , her last release of the year.
In 2016, she had Rajesh Pillai 's Vettah ,[ 38] Karinkunnam 6's and Shakuntala, a Drama[ 39] [ 40] [ 41]
Manju Warrier seen with Sadhguru & Shashi Kumar at KLF 2017 In 2017, Warrier had C/O Saira Banu ,[ 42] [ 43] Villain , and Udaharanam Sujatha .[ 44]
In 2018, Manju appeared in the lead role in the Kamala Surayya biopic Aami .[ 45] [ 46] Her next film for release was the musical-romantic-comedy drama Mohanlal , in which she played a die-hard fan of Mohanlal . Though the movie received mixed responses, the actress was appreciated for her comic timing and for understanding how a 'crazy fan lives and breathes.'[ 47] Her final release of the year was the much-hyped fantasy drama Odiyan , which has the highest opening day collection for a film at the Kerala box office and for a Malayalam film at the worldwide box office. The movie opened to mixed reviews, but Warrier was praised for being uniformly good as the lonesome Prabha 'who has always known that her fate was written the moment she was born into a particular social class and often summons up the spirit to defy that written word.'[ 48] Her first release in 2019 was Lucifer directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran . Manjusha Radhakrisnan wrote in her review, "To watch top Malayali talent Manju Warrier as a grieving daughter of a political leader, who dies suddenly, leaving a political vacuum in her family and her political outfit, is pure gold. Warrier as a troubled mother and wife Priyadarshani — who unearths a string of dark secrets within her family circles — is heartbreaking. In limited screen-time, she comes across as a paragon of vulnerability and strength — an indication to the strength of her acting prowess."[ 49] [ 50] Lucifer went on to become the first Malayalam film to earn more than ₹200 crore,[ 51] and is currently the third highest-grossing Malayalam film . In the same year, she made her Tamil debut with Vetrimaaran's Asuran opposite Dhanush . Sreedhar Pillai called her performance 'intense' in his review for Firstpost . "Manju, as Dhanush's wife, makes a sensational debut in Tamil. You can feel her anger and the wetness in her tears."[ 52] Her final release of the year saw her collaborating with her comeback director Rosshan Andrrews for the revenge thriller Prathi Poovankozhi . Critics unanimously praised her arresting screen presence and acting.[ 53] In his review for Film Companion , Vishal Menon noted, "..if anyone thought Manju Warrier hasn't had too many great performance in her second coming, show them Prathi Poovankozhi along with Asuran, to remind them that no one can play anger like she can." For her portrayals of bold, brave women on screen who defy the notions of what roles women can play, Manju Warrier was named a 'disruptor' by Film Companion. [ 54]
In March 2021, Warrier began filming for Amriki Pandit , her Hindi debut opposite R. Madhavan .[ 55]
In 2021, she acted with Mammootty for the movie The Priest . In 2022, Manju reunited with Biju Menon through Lalitham Sundaram after a gap of 20 years.[ 56]
