When the world becomes confusing, there is a small hamlet that I escape to. It is located in Kerala and has a name I don’t know. The inhabitants are an innocent few, leading their lives at a leisurely pace. There is a temple, a few local elders, a tea house or two, a small bus stand and a post office, some youngsters in love with each other, green fields, a flowing river. This place probably does not exist any more but it came to life in countless Malayalam films. The movies are different now but this place does its magic for me… every time.
That’s what I call romance.

I remember this place. I haven’t been there lately. Must visit it again sometime soon. 🙂 Any recent movies to recommend that were shot here?

Re-watched ‘Mazhavilkavadi’ yesterday. Then there is ‘Pradeshika Varthakal,’ ‘Sandesham,’ ‘Ponmuttayidunna Tharavu’ and so many more… 🙂
