Synopsis
Minnal Murali (2021) is a Malayalam-language superhero film from Kerala you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by Basil Joseph and released on Netflix, it follows Jaison, a village tailor who returns home from America — and gets caught in a lightning strike during a planetary alignment that comes around once every seven hundred years.
He survives. He also gets powers. The problem: the same bolt hit someone else in the village, and that person has different ideas about what to do with them. The film runs 142 minutes and splits the time between screwball Kerala village comedy — weddings, family feuds, visa drama — and a superhero showdown that turns unexpectedly dark. Tovino Thomas carries it on physical presence alone. The film showed that a Malayalam genre picture could travel well on a global streaming platform.
