Porinju Mariam Jose is a 2019 Indian Malayalam-language action drama film directed by Joshiy from a screenplay written by Abhilash N. Chandran. It starred Joju George, Nyla Usha, and Chemban Vinod Jose in the titular characters, while Vijayaraghavan and Rahul Madhav appeared in supporting roles. The original soundtrack of the film was composed by Jakes Bejoy. The story is loosely based on real events that occurred during the 1980s and 1990s in Thrissur.[1][2]

It was released on 23 August 2019 to generally positive reviews from both the critics and audience alike. It became the fifth Malayalam film of 2019 to successfully complete 100 days in theaters after Lucifer, Kumbalangi Nights, Uyare, and Virus. It was deemed as a huge commercial comeback for Joshiy.[3] It is remade in Telugu as Naa Saami Ranga, starring Nagarjuna.[4]
