The film Iniyum reaches audiences with a story based on real-life incidents. Directed by Jeeva, Iniyum presents the true life story of Sudheer C. B., the producer of Yadu Film Factory. This marks a first in Malayalam cinema, where a producer narrates his own life story through a film, making the project particularly noteworthy. The story, screenplay, and dialogues of the film are also written by producer Sudheer himself. Along with prominent actors, several newcomers appear in the film.
Set against a rural backdrop, Iniyum tells a powerful story that emphasizes family bonds. Jeeva crafts a distinct narrative that gives importance to family relationships, friendships, love, humor, and dynamic action sequences.
A special highlight of the film is that action director Ashraf Gurukkal appears in a villain role. The beautiful songs composed by Mohan Sithara add to the charm of the film. A song sung by renowned Tamil playback singer Srinivas is sure to captivate audiences.
Bhadran is a member of a Namboothiri family with a long lineage. Circumstances turn him into an aide of Vareed, a ruthless moneylender. While working for Vareed, Bhadran engages in money collection and acts of violence. After Vareed’s death, Bhadran starts his own chit fund business, which turns Vareed’s children into his enemies. An incident that occurs in between forces Bhadran to flee his village. While living in hiding in another village, Bhadran becomes a temple priest. The film unfolds as an eventful narrative based on these developments.
In the film, Saneesh Meleppatt plays the lead role, with Parthip Krishnan portraying a key character. Bhadra appears as the female lead.
