Adayalangal Malayalam Movie

Adayalangal, the film that won five State Awards, including the award for the best film and the award for the best director, is all set for release.

Produced by Aravind Venugopal under the banner of Valluvanaadan Talkies, the film, directed by M.G. Sasi, is based on the real life story of Nandanar, one of the most popular names in Malayalam literature. Nandanar wrote stories and novels that fascinated all sections of readers and also specialized in writing for children.

Nandanar, whose real name was P.C. Gopalan, joined the army, but disillusioned with the life of a soldier soon left the forces. Later he penned stories based on his experiences in the army. A man who had a zest for life, Nandanar ironically ended up committing suicide.

The film tells the story of a young man named Gopi from a little village in Kerala who joins the army. This young soldier, just 36 years of age, has to take the life of his enemy to save his own. This experience leaves him disillusioned. He leaves the army and returns to his native village to start writing. Adayalangal also zooms in on the love-life of the protagonist.

While debutante Govind Padmasurya does the lead role of Gopi, it's Jyothirmayi who plays the heroine. Noted director T.V. Chandran with whom the director M.G. Sasi had worked earlier too plays a key role in the film.
