Darling Darling is a 2000 Indian Malayalam-language comedy-drama film directed by Rajasenan and written by Udayakrishna and Siby K. Thomas.

Plot[edit]

Subhash Chandra Bose, aka Kochu Kurup (Vineeth) hears a phone call from a teenage girl named Padmaja "Pappi" Warrier (Kavya Madhavan) and soon falls in love with her. But his parents send him to Bangalore to meet his best friend Kartik, aka Aniyankutty (Dileep), who is a rich womanizer. Aniyankutty also falls in love with Pappi, but he does not disclose this to Kochu Kurup. Kochu Kurup's father brings a marriage alliance to him, but he says that he is not interested, not knowing that the alliance is with Pappi herself. However, Kartik gets to know this, and he helps Kochu Kurup to cancel the wedding since he has an eye on her.

Kochu Kurup and Pappi try to elope before the marriage, unaware that the marriage scheduled for them was with each other. Aniyankutty stops Kurup on the way with the help of thugs so that instead of Kurup he can reach the railway station and take Pappi with him. But the family intervenes and Aniyankutty is beaten by the thugs. Pappi reaches the railway station and waits for Aniyankutty, but when he doesn't show up Pappi tries to commit suicide walking down the railway track. Then Kochu Kurup shows up late and tries to find Pappi, but he couldn't. Then he realizes Pappi is going to commit suicide and runs to save her from the train, but he is far behind. Aniyankutty wakes up from being hit by the goons and sees Pappi walking down the railway track and the train is closing in. Aniyankutty runs and saves Pappi from the train just in time. Kochu Kurup thought Pappi was dead, but as the train passes by he sees that Aniyankutty saved her and explains everything to her. Pappi and Kochu Kurupp unite as Aniyankutty leaves to Banglore.
