The movie was a huge box office hit and established Dulquer Salmaan as the next young heartthrob in only his second film. The crowd-pleaser, directed by Anwar Rasheed told the story of a young Switzerland-trained chef (played by Mammootty’s son Dulquer Salmaan) who learns about love, humility and heartland cooking from his estranged grandfather. Ustad Hotel brought Anjali Menon into the news again two months later, this time as a script writer for a coming-of-age drama of a different sort.

It got its wide release in theatres in 2012 and struck a chord with its nostalgic coming-of-age story of an extended family assembling from around the world to mourn the demise of the family patriarch. Manjadikuru ( Lucky Red Seeds), directed by debutante director Anjali Menon, had been doing the rounds of festivals since 2008. This film was a box office hit as well, his third in a row. In addition to compelling performances from the actors, the movie featured a killer rock soundtrack, including the opening track Chillane.Īmazingly, Aashiq Abu was back with another film by year end, the offbeat romantic comedy, Da Thadiya ( Hey Fatty), the story of an obese young man who decides to lose weight in order to win the affections of his childhood sweetheart. Featuring Fahadh Faasil yet again, this was a rare Indian film where a woman takes matters into her own hands and wreaks deadly revenge on the men who betrayed and raped her.
One of the breakout directors from 2011 returned and a new talent emerged enjoying success both as a director and as a scriptwriter:-Īashiq Abu returned a year after Salt N’ Pepper with the revenge-thriller 22 Female Kottayam, starring Rima Kallingal (whom he eventually married). This is a continuation of my previous post where I talked about my discovery of Malayalam New Wave cinema in the past year and my chronological journey through key films which have signposted its emergence since 2011.
