PLOT:


Thirakkatha' is a reminder of the unchangeable process of life. It is more a bittersweet portrait of nostalgia - a melancholic reflection of the inescapable passage of time and an irretrievable past.

Renjith's 'Thirakkatha' has a peripheral layer of celebrity marriage, divorce, associated mysteries and above all, the hectic processes that go on to make a fruitful script. But the movie is about none of those things specifically, but rather the choices that people make in life and love and the end results of those choices.

The movie is all about Akbar Ahmed, a young movie director, who is in the search for the scripts for his second movie. Akbar is already a talk in the industry about his different way of approach to the profession, and for his living away from tinsel town, simultaneously running a motel 'Casablanca' with his crew and friends. Akbar is in no hurry into his second venture, though he has plenty of offers. He chances upon to the life story of Malavika who was a rage in Malayalam Cinema in the 1980's. She had faded out from the screen after her marriage and divorce, with the superstar Ajaychandran and nobody knows what has happened to her. Akbar together with his friends wants to track her down for his next film and what happens as an aftermath forms the rest of the plot.
