Alphonse Puthren’s Premam, a cult film
After earning favourable reviews, Premam went on to establish itself as a Malayalam cult classic.

The movie received a lot of praise from film enthusiasts for its enticing yet straightforward plot and talented cast, which included several debutantes, especially the female leads. Young people also started to enjoy this romantic drama because of its upbeat choreography and soundtracks.
The movie was praised for both its elements that drew in aspiring filmmakers and its capacity to evoke nostalgia in many viewers. Premam helped Nivin Pauly amass an extensive following as well. Additionally, it launched the careers of Madonna Sebastian, Sai Pallavi, and Anupama Parameswaran.
