Meenakshi 2024 Malayalam Navarasa Short Films 7 Work May 2026

★★★★☆ (4.5/5) Recommended for: Fans of Kireedam , Joji , and international anthologies like Wild Tales .

Perhaps the most intense of the seven, Kattil Kothippu is a pure exploration of Raudra . Set entirely in one room during the COVID-19 lockdown, this film depicts a married couple’s argument that escalates from passive aggression to physical violence. Unlike mainstream cinema that romanticizes anger, this short makes the viewer deeply uncomfortable, showing how Raudra corrodes love. The final shot of a broken photo frame is haunting.

A tonal shift. Chiri Tharavadu is a satirical take on a crumbling aristocratic family that decides to sell their ancestral home. The comedy arises not from slapstick but from situational irony. The family members laugh maniacally to hide their bankruptcy. This film uses Hasya not just as humor but as a mask for pain, making it a smart, bittersweet watch. Director: Lijin Jose Runtime: 22 minutes ★★★★☆ (4
