Best of Malayalam films, 2007
Paradesi
Director: P.T.Kunhi Muhammed
Cast: Mohanlal, Padmapriya
Paradesi handled a highly relevant issue of some Muslims, who are natives of northern Kerala but have been branded as Pakistanis thanks to their passports. Their only fault was that they were in Pakistan when the Partition took place.
The cruel way in which the society treats Valiyakath Moosa (Mohanlal) and his friends is sensitively narrated by director P T Kunhi Muhammed.
