Asuravithu is a 1968 Malayalam film directed by A. Vincent, starring Prem Nazir and Sharada in the lead roles. The film was scripted by M. T. Vasudevan Nair, based on his own novel Asuravithu.[1] Set in a Kerala village in the 1960s, the political melodrama focuses on Hindu-Muslim unity. The film portrays the plight of the protagonist, the youngest son of a proud Nair tharavadu, as he is trapped between the social scenario, social injustice and his own inner consciousness. Prem Nazir's acting in the movie was well appreciated by the viewers.

The film was the last of M. T.'s trilogy of political melodramas – the other two being Vincent's Murappennu (1965) and P. Bhaskaran's Iruttinte Athmavu (1967).

Plot

The rich Shekharan Nair (Sankaradi) tries to bribe his brother-in-law Govindankutty (Prem Nazir) to marry his daughter Meenakshi (Sharada). The reason for this haste is that Meenakshi is pregnant by Govindankutty's wayward nephew. Govindankutty, however refuses and is thrown out by the family. He moves in with his Muslim friend Kunjarakkar (P. J. Antony), a daring thing to do, given the prevailing socio-political atmosphere. He eventually converts to Islam, renaming himself Abdullah.
