Malayalam actor Tovino Thomas, who recently enjoyed huge success with Ajayante Randam Moshanam (ARM), faced a big disappointment with his next film Identity. The action thriller, made on a budget of Rs 30 crore, earned only Rs 3.5 crore in Kerala and about Rs 16.51 crore worldwide. This made it one of the biggest flops of 2025.
Tovino Thomas’ Action Film ‘Identity’ Flops
After the massive success of ARM, which crossed Rs 100 crore worldwide, fans had high expectations from Tovino’s new project. The film Identity featured a strong cast including Trisha Krishnan, Vinay Rai, Aju Varghese, and Shammi Thilakan. However, it failed to attract audiences despite the big names and exciting action sequences.
Industry experts said the failure was surprising because the film did not face heavy competition at the box office. Other releases like Unni Mukundan’s Marco and Mohanlal’s Barroz were not performing strongly, which gave Identity a good opportunity to succeed. But the story and execution could not connect with the audience, leading to poor box office results.

Fans and critics have been discussing the reasons behind the flop. Some believe that the film’s plot was confusing, while others feel that it did not live up to the excitement and thrill promised in its promotions. Despite the setback, Tovino Thomas’ popularity remains intact due to his earlier successes and strong performances in other films.
