Raju Malliath

Raju Malliath has his fingerprints all over some seriously intriguing cinema, especially if you’re the kind of person who gets a kick out of stories that don’t just spoon-feed you the answers. Let’s talk about “Identity” (2025) first—rumor has it, this one’s a real mind-bender. The plot? Twisted. Layered. It takes you down some wild rabbit holes about who we are, what makes us tick, and whether you can really trust the face in the mirror. There’s a mystery brewing right from the start, and just when you think you’ve wrapped your head around it, the story yanks the rug out. Malliath’s style? Not afraid to get gritty. Then there’s “Red Rain” from 2013. Man, that movie was ahead of its time. Malliath dives into the sci-fi zone with some straight-up bonkers weather phenomena—blood-red rain falling from the sky, people losing their minds trying to explain it, and a scientist who’s way out of his depth. It’s a mix of suspense, science, and, honestly, a bit of chaos. You walk out questioning everything you thought you knew about nature. And don’t even get me started on “Bhramaram” (2009). Malliath spins a tight psychological thriller here. The plot is intense—think road trip meets revenge quest, with old friends hiding ugly secrets. The atmosphere? Claustrophobic as hell at times. It’s one of those films where you can’t look away, even if your nerves are shot by the end. All in all, Malliath carves out stories that stick in your brain long after the credits roll.
