S Durga

S Durga is a scriptless experimental social drama directed by Sanal Kumar Sasidharan of the Ozhivudivasathe Kali fame. The movie has Kannan Nayar and Angry Indian Goddess actress Rajshri Deshpande as the prime characters. The movie is about an unmarried couple Kabeer and Durga who runs away on the festive night of Garudan Thookkam. After many desperate attempts to hitch a ride, finally, a Maruti van stops by and they get in. The rest of this road thriller movie takes place inside the van and the subject matter is a critical look at the moral policing that is on the rise in the society. 

S Durga has been originally titled Sexy Durga. The movie has won many international accolades including Hivos Tiger Award for the best feature film at the International Film Festival of Rotterdam and has been screened in many international film festival circuits. However, none of these accolades or acclaims helped the movie back home. It has been caught in controversies throughout and had to finally succumb to censor board to clear the certificates with a title change.
