Pinneyum

Pinneyum (Malayalam: പിന്നെയും, Once Again) is a 2016 Indian Malayalam-language Biographical crime drama film written, co-produced, and directed by Adoor Gopalakrishnan. Businessman Baby Mathew Somatheeram co-produced the film. The film portrays a love story where Dileep and Kavya Madhavan (in her final acting credit before marriage to Dileep) star in the lead roles. This film was loosely inspired by the murder incident in Kerala during 1984 by Sukumara Kurup, a wanted criminal. Saibal Chatterjee, eminent film critic, wrote that "Pinneyum is clearly the work of a maestro who has nothing to prove: undemonstrative but staggeringly impactful." The film thus received mixed reviews from critics. This movie was only a moderate success at the box office compared to earlier Adoor films. Nevertheless, it was released simultaneously in around 100 cinema theatres in Kerala and another 30 outside, including five in Mumbai.
