Vedivazhipadu is a 2013 Malayalam sex comedy film scripted and directed by newcomer Shambu Purushothaman, a graduate of Satyajit Ray Film and Television Institute.[1] The cast includes Indrajith Sukumaran, Murali Gopy, Saiju Kurup, Anumol, Sreejith Ravi, Anusree and Mythili. The film was produced by director Arun Kumar Aravind under the banner of Karmayug Movies. Award-winning cinematographer Shehnad Jalal, Shambu's classmate from SRFTII, cranked the camera, while Bijibal scored the background music.[2]
Vedivazhipadu depicts the events in a time frame of 24 hours on the Pongala festival day at the Attukal Temple.[3] The film mired in controversy as the Censor Board had issues with the content [4][5] and denied a censor certificate.[6] It was later given an Adults Only Certificate by the Censor Board [7] and released on 12 December 2013.[8]
