Mohanlal's Neru crosses 50 crore mark 

Mohanlal's latest release Neru has crossed the 50 crore mark, announced the makers on Friday. As per their claims, the film has grossed over Rs 50 crores from its worldwide run. 

Directed by Jeethu Joseph, Neru is an emotional courtroom drama in which Mohanlal plays an advocate named Vijayamohan.
