Panaji: Actor Rima Kallingal on Tuesday said that she was happy to be part of Dr. Biju Kumar’s Kaadu Pookkunna Neram that addresses a contemporary issue from two sides.

Calling the movie, a conversation, she said it presents social issues in a realistic manner without being judgmental.

Dr Biju's Kaadu Pookkunna Neram - a big draw at IFFI

A realistic narrative that questions the odd ways and functions of the state apparatus that oppresses the marginalized and represses the dissenters, the film was featured in the Indian Panorama section of the 47th edition of IFFI.
