Summer- Easter-Vishu 2009 releases

The summer 2009 season in Malayalam film industry will start on March 27, with the release of Mohanlal´s action adventure film Sagar alias Jackie. Traditionally summer is the best season for the industry.
It starts from the last Friday of March when the schools and colleges close for the vacations´ to the third Friday of May, before Monsoon sets in India normally hitting Kerala first on the Arabian coast.
During this time there is Easter, Vishu and May Day all public holidays. But the industry is in fear of summer of 2009, as there are two big blockbuster releases - Lok Sabha Elections and 2009 IPL season 2 from April 10 to May 29. Both these factors will eat into the box-office collections, already creating panic in the industry.
