KUALA LUMPUR, April 17 — The Super Mario Galaxy Movie stays at No. 1, while the much-anticipated Tamil-language Love Insurance Kompany debuts in second place.

While it’s cool to see a futuristic Chennai setting, this romantic comedy directed by Vignesh Shivan is receiving mixed reviews, but the curiosity among Malaysians to check it out in cinemas is keeping it steady at the box office.

Local offerings are holding their own, with the Gayong sequel hitting third, while both Malaikat Malam and Mikael: Pemburu Dua Alam stay on this week’s list, continuing to draw audiences.

The second season of Bloodhounds continues to dominate Netflix, alongside Walid on Viu and Star Wars: Maul — Shadow Lord on Disney+.

Long weekends ahead, nothing beats settling in for a relaxed break filled with entertainment ranging from movies and TV series to music and, of course, a good book.
