Strange events unfold in a monkey-inhabited village, prompting a newlywed pair and forest officials to embark on a mission to uncover the root cause of the peculiar disturbances.


As Aparna settles into her new life in Ajay’s home, she begins to notice strange and unsettling behaviors from her father-in-law, Appu Pilla. His mood swings, secretive nature, and obsession with the missing pistol raise her suspicions. When she shares these concerns with Ajay, he dismisses them, reassuring her that Appu Pilla’s behavior is merely a product of his old age issues. Later however, he explains that his father has been suffering from memory loss for years, but has developed his own coping mechanisms to function normally. However, Ajay warns Aparna that Appu Pilla becomes furious when questioned about his condition or urged to seek medical help, and it’s best not to confront him about it.

Director Dinjith Aiyyathan does a fine job of translating such a complex screenplay to the big screen without letting the intrigue or mystery lag at any point. I must say that the film’s title, taken from the Ramayana, is one of the most poetic titles for a film, and one will understand the connection when one watches the film. I have mentioned this before – no other language writers have such a fine understanding of the police procedures than the Malayalam writers. This film is another proof of that. The interplay of the Police, Forest and Revenue departments in typical situations that arise in a reserve forest area is shown in a very real sense and kudos to the writer and director for the same. These scenes are real eye-opening ones.

Kishkindha Kandam is a finely made film with a very intriguing storyline and screenplay. If you like slow-burn mystery films, this is a good watch. It is now streaming on Hotstar.



Ajay finally reveals the dark secret he has been hiding: Three years ago, Chachu while still alive, discovers Appu Pilla’s memory loss and snuck into his room, finding the pistol. Despite being warned by his grandfather, the child continues to frequently play with the pistol and one day shot and killed a monkey. Appu Pilla, along with his old friend Sumadathan, secretly buried the monkey’s body, which was the skeleton recently discovered by the neighbor. Shortly after, tragedy struck again—Ajay returned home one day to find Chachu dead, accidentally shot by the pistol while his mother, Pravina was trying to take the gun away from him. In her grief and guilt, Pravina who was also a cancer patient, overdosed on her prescription medicines and attempted suicide. Though Ajay rushed her to the hospital, when he returned home to get her chemotherapy documents, he found that Chachu’s body had disappeared. Appu Pilla, in a shocking act of self-preservation, is assumed to have removed the body and later forgotten where he has buried the body. He tells Ajay he knows the gun killed Chachu accidentally, and told him he doesn't want to know if the accident happened through Chachu, Ajay or Pravi. He insisted that no one should ever know the truth that Chachu died, claiming it was for the family’s own good. Since then, they have maintained the story that Chachu went missing.
