The upcoming film Maram Peyyumbol will have actress Anumol playing the title role of a victim. The movie, written and directed by Anil Thomas, is based on a real incident that took place in Mumbai around 40 years ago. Aruna Shaunbaug, a nurse, was brutally raped by a hospital attender and this left her in comma since then. Her relatives abandoned her and it has been the employees of the King Edward’s Memorial Hospital who have been taking care of her.
They even fought against a petition seeking a mercy killing for Aruna and won the case, which made headlines about three years ago. Anumol will be portraying Aruna’s character.
