An year that started off with 'Karayilekku Oru Kadal Dooram', and that finally draws to a close with 'Vellaripravinte Changathy' – that is Malayalam Cinema in 2011 for you. Around seventy five films made it to the screens this year, of which merely a few left an impact. This was yet another uneventful year for Malayalam cinema, and here are ten films (in no particular order) that stood out from the rest.
Beautiful: V K Prakash and Anoop Menon joined hands as director and writer for this Beautiful film that left critics and the audience enthralled. There were even protests against the film not being granted a much deserved run at the theatres. Starring Jayasurya, Anoop Menon and Meghna Raj, this was intelligent cinema indeed.
