"Oru Manushyan" (Malayalam: ഒരു മനുഷ്യൻ; English: A Certain Man) is a short story written by Vaikom Muhammad Basheer. It was originally published in Mathrubhumi Illustrated Weekly and later included in the 1952 collection Pavapettavarude Veshya (The Prostitute of the Poor).[1] The story is about a man living in a town notorious for its people's greed, who has saved his meagre earnings in his wallet, only to have it stolen at a restaurant; threatened to be stripped naked and left without any help, he is eventually saved by a stranger who shows him kindness by returning his wallet. It is one of the most popular of Basheer's stories.[2][3] It was adapted into a telefilm of the same name by T. V. Chandran. The story is a subject of instruction at schools and colleges.[4][5]
