A clip from the award winning Malayalam song sung by Vaikom Vijayalakshmi for the movie ARM. Very touching. Another truly touching song of hers

Hearty Congratulations to Playback singer Vaikom Vijayalakshmi for winning the National Award for best female playback singer. She had won several state / regional awards before. This award is for song "Angu Vaana Konilu" from the Malayalam movie ARM (Ajayante Randam Moshanam)

[IANS @ians_india]

Kochi, Keralam: On winning the National Award for Best Female Playback Singer at the 72nd National Film Awards, Vaikom Vijayalakshmi says, "First of all, I thank God. I'm truly happy. What a wonderful surprise this is. I came to know about the National Award through my friend Subash, who is a documentary director. He has also made a documentary about me. Yesterday, he called me and said, 'Congratulations.' I asked, 'For what?' He told me it was for the song in the movie ARM. So, this month of Karkidakam has brought us a beautiful surprise. I thank the Almighty, my parents, and my teachers. My heartfelt thanks to the ARM team, director Jithin Laal, music director Dhibu Ninan Thomas, and all the artists who were part of the movie. I also congratulate actor Mammootty on winning the award..."

Watched "Anbe Diana " today – A Tamil romcom movie exploring the opportunities and limitations of caste dynamics in conservative families and challenges they face when confronted with inter-faith marriage. A truly entertaining film filled with comedy and wonderful performances

Iconic Malayalam actor Mammootty won the Best Actor award at the 72nd National Film Awards for his stellar performance in the horror-thriller 'Bramayugam'. This milestone marks his fourth prestigious National Award for Best Actor.

This is a time of almost dreamlike achievements for Malayalam cinema's great actor, Mammootty. The mega star has been showered with prestigious awards in the year 2025-26. While shining brightly with the Padma Bhushan and the State Award for Best Actor, Mammootty once again won the Best Actor award at the 72nd National Film Awards.

'Bramayugam' (The Age of Madness), directed by Rahul Sadasivan, is a monochrome psychological horror film rooted in the dark folklore of Kerala. Mammootty plays Koduman Potti, a tyrannical feudal lord residing in a decaying mansion, who is later revealed to be an ancient evil entity, a Chathan.

Legendary Tamil filmmaker/actor Bharathi Raja is no more. A well accomplished director, he's credited for several bold initiatives in the course of his remarkable career. Beginning as a director in 1977, he redefined Indian storytelling, bringing art and commercial cinema closer

Deeply shocked and pained at the tragic news of the child murder at Nedumangad, Trivandrum. The brutality the toddler endured before succumbing is unfathomable.
As a society we must ensure that incidents like these never occur again anywhere.
