Makaramanju (English: The Mist of Capricorn) is a 2011 Malayalam language romantic drama film written and directed by Lenin Rajendran. The film is about celebrated painter Raja Ravi Varma's life at a certain stage in his life. It also narrates the story of epic character Pururavas. Cinematographer Santhosh Sivan and Karthika Nair appear in the lead roles, as it was also the latter' major Malayalam debut (in her mother-tongue).
"Urvashi Pururavas" is the painting that has been woven into the narrative of the film. In a story within a story format, Lenin Rajendran intertwines the story of the artist with that of the mythological Urvashi and her beloved King Pururavas. The film received mixed reviews upon release. It was one of the five Malayalam films to be screened at the International Film Festival of India.[1] It won the FIPRESCI Prize for Best Malayalam Film at the International Film Festival of Kerala.[2] It has been nominated for the Indian National Film Awards for 2010.[3]
