Animals have always been part of movie stories. But in Malayalam cinema, they are more than just background faces. They walk into the story like real people. They feel pain. They give joy. They sometimes make us laugh and sometimes make us cry. These films show animals as living souls, not props.
‘CID Moosa ‘ and the dog everyone remembers
One of the most loved examples is ‘CID Moosa’. The film came in 2003 and starred Dileep. The police dog Arjun, also known as Bhadran, became a star on its own. The dog helps the confused detective solve cases. It also creates many funny moments.
