Ullozhukku (2024) – A Riveting Drama

Ullozhukku (transl. Undercurrent) is a 2024 Indian Malayalam-language drama film written and directed by Christo Tomy. The film stars Urvashi and Parvathy Thiruvothu, delivering stellar performances that anchor the film's emotional depth. Set in the flood-ravaged regions of Alappuzha, Kerala, the story revolves around Anju (Parvathy), who is trapped in a loveless marriage with the dying Thomaskutty and seeks solace in an affair with Rajeev (Arjun Radhakrishnan). The narrative takes a dramatic turn when Anju discovers her pregnancy amidst the chaos of a natural disaster, leading to a series of intense confrontations and revelations.

Urvashi, as Thomaskutty's mother Leelamma, gives a powerhouse performance, portraying a range of emotions from grief to betrayal with incredible authenticity. Parvathy Thiruvothu’s portrayal of Anju is equally compelling, capturing the character's inner conflict and resilience.

Christo Tomy's direction is meticulous, weaving a narrative that is both intimate and expansive. Shehnad Jalal's cinematography beautifully captures the flooded landscapes, while Sushin Shyam's music adds a hauntingly beautiful layer to the film.

Ullozhukku has received widespread critical acclaim and commercial success, praised for its strong performances, direction, and emotional storytelling. It's a must-watch for fans of Malayalam cinema and anyone who appreciates a well-crafted drama.
