Get ready for a twisted, laugh-out-loud ride, Malayalam cinema’s surprise theatrical hit Maranamass is all set to stream on Sony LIV from May 15, 2025! Directed by Sivaprasad and headlined by the ever-versatile Basil Joseph and Rajesh Madhavan, the film blends satire, suspense, and absurdity into a dark comedy that had audiences hooked when it hit theatres.

Set in the heart of Kerala, Maranamass follows the story of two ordinary friends who believe they’ve just witnessed a murder. What starts off as a shocking incident quickly spirals into a mind-bending series of bizarre events, entangling them in a web of local politics, paranoia, hidden motives, and escalating chaos. As the situation unravels, viewers are left questioning: is what we’re seeing real, or is someone behind the scenes pulling the strings?
