InterviewShruthi’s debut film ‘B 32 Muthal 44 Vare’, dealing with the bodily challenges of women, won a special award under the Women and Transgender category of Kerala. Shruthi SharanyamWhen Shruthi Sharanyam speaks of the six main characters of her debut film, they sound like friends she has long had. Jaya's story alone should be a separate film and Rachel is almost like me, she says about two of the six persons she wrote about all too fondly. It was a pet topic, something she had mused about for years before sitting down with a nearly impossible deadline to write. When she was done, the film, B 32 Muthal 44 Vare, became a neatly woven work of art documenting through fiction the many bodily challenges women go through.

EntertainmentA number of awards went to ‘Nna Thaan Case Kodu’ and ‘Ila Veezha Poonchira’.For his uncanny transformation from a sleeping James to a happy-go-lucky Sundaram in Nanpakal Nerathu Mayakkam, Mammootty, one of the most respected actors in the south, won the Best Actor (Male) award from the government of Kerala – his eighth, counting best and special jury awards from the 80s. Along with him, young Vincy Aloshious won her first state accolade for Best Actor (Female) for the tough title character she played in Rekha, who moves on from love to crude vengeance, literally letting her actions speak louder than words. Director Lijo Jose Pellissery, a habitual maker of fantastical cinema, won the Best Film award for creating Nanpakal Nerathu Mayakkam. Mahesh Narayanan, an editor who turned to direction with Take Off, won the Best Director award for Areeppu, which told the relatable story of a couple who go...

Thiruvananthapuram, April 5 (Ians) Malayalam movie ‘B 32 to 44’ is a satire on “the perfect body myth”, that narrates the stories of five women and a transman from different social strata and the overwhelming pressure they face in their daily lives because of their unmodified bodies and their responses to the male-gaze.
The official trailer of the much-awaited film helmed by Shruthi Sharanyam was released on YouTube. Prominent figures from media, cinema, politics, literature shared the poster with compliments.
Set amidst a middle-class apartment, a few offices, a school and an upper-class home, belonging to six people (hailing from managerial class to working class), ‘B 32 to 44’ is also a philosophical inquiry into how we inhabit “Breast”, a body part women have and how “breast”, in turn, inhabits and uses us. Their stories are interwoven as each character is connected to one another in some common social settings. The film has a positive...

ReviewThe film, through the stories of six women, takes you through crises, both small and big, related to bodily issues that get resolved with the comforting support that one woman lends another.Quietly, smoothly, Shruthi Sharanyam’s B 32 Muthal 44 Vare flows from one woman to another, like a sheet of paper in the wind. You wouldn’t notice when the shifts between the stories end, because by then the women have somehow floated into each other’s lives.
