A deeply underrated gem. Eeda is the antithesis of glamorous romance. It shows how political extremism infiltrates personal relationships—two lovers from rival ideologies meet in secret, aware that their families would kill them. Shane Nigam and Nimisha Sajayan are painfully real. The film’s pacing is deliberate, almost uncomfortable, mirroring the suffocation of its characters. Verdict: For serious cinephiles. Unflinching and important. 6. Ramaleela (Ram’s Play) Director: Arun Gopy Cast: Dileep (controversial figure, but performance-wise), Radhika Sarathkumar

A crowd-pleaser that works because of its earnestness. Wamiqa Gabbi (as Aditi Singh) is a revelation—she trained for months and does most of her stunts.
