Template:Infobox film award The Kerala State Film Award for Best Actor is an honour, begun in 1969, presented annually at the Kerala State Film Awards of India to an actor for best performance in a Malayalam film. Until 1997, the awards were managed directly by the Department of Cultural Affairs of the Government of Kerala. Since 1998, the awards have been constituted by the Kerala State Chalachitra Academy, an autonomous, non-profit institution functioning under the Department of Cultural Affairs.[1] The awardees are decided by an independent jury constituted every year.[2] They are announced by the Minister for Cultural Affairs and are presented by the Chief Minister.[3]

Throughout the years, accounting for ties and repeat winners, the Government of Kerala has presented a total of 55 Best Actor awards to 32 different actors. The recipients receive a figurine, a certificate, and a cash prize of Template:INR Convert.[4][5] Several actors have won the honour for more than one film in a given year. As of 2020, the only actor to have won the prize in consecutive years is Bharat Gopy, in 1982 and 1983.

The first Kerala State film Awards ceremony was held in 1970 with Sathyan receiving the award for Kadalpalam (1969). In 1981, Nedumudi Venu received the honour for his performance in various films released that year. As of 2020, Mohanlal is the most honoured actor with six awards, followed by Mammootty with five. Two actorsTemplate:MdashBharat Gopy and MuraliTemplate:Mdashhave won the award four times.
