Vakkalathu Narayanankutty (transl. Narayanankutty on prosecution) is a 2001 Indian Malayalam-language legal comedy-drama film co-written and directed by T. K. Rajeev Kumar, starring Jayaram, Mukesh, Manya and Jagathy Sreekumar. It was actor Bobby Kottarakkara's last film. It was during the shooting of this film that Bobby Kottarakkara died, leaving the team to continue the shooting without him.[1] The film had an average performance at the box office.[2][3]

Plot[edit]

The film presents the story of Narayanankutty, popularly known as Vakkaalaththu Narayanankutty, an active social worker who can bear anything but breach of justice. When he sees law being broken anywhere, he reacts promptly. He doesn't even care as to who is pitted against him and just goes on fighting. This leads to all sorts of problems in his life and the film follows that.

The film is loosely based on the noted social activist, Nawab Rajendran.[4]
