The director name of the latest Malayalam release 'Mazhayathu,' starring
Aparna Gopinath, might have sounded familiar at least for a few.
Yes, his name isn't a popular one, but not too unknown either. K P Suveeran is the director who bagged a national award right through his debut film 'Byari' in 2011. It is also the first movie in the language beary, which belongs to a community concentrated mostly along the southwest coast of India, in coastal Dakshina Kannada, Karnataka.
The society has its own unique traditions and distinct cultural identity.
'Mazhayathu' tells the story of a close-knit family which faces a problem that creates turmoil in relationships.
