Under the Mangosteen Tree (UTMT) is an adventurous mix of ten stories by the great Malayalam writer Vaikom Muhammad Basheer, all very different, but with a common vein of love, humour and pathos running through them. A connecting link in this heady concoction is the character of Basheer himself, who plays narrator, participant and witness in turn. These stories are blended in a non-linear yet seamless narrative that reveals the extraordinary range of Basheer’s writing and experiences.Cast:Ashif AAparna GopinathDarshana RajendranDharanidharanKaruna AmarnathKrish DayalPaul MathewVinod SusheelaCrew:Anamika Anand SAntony FelixaPHDeepak Kurki ShivaswamyNandini ReddyNiren SaldanhaSubodha SubrahmanyaSudharshan KDirected by: Rajiv Krishnan120 minutes without intermissionPerch is a Chennai-based th
