Neela Nira Sooriyan, backed by Mala Manyan under the First Copy Productions banner, hit theatres on October 4 and opened to positive reviews.

Neela Nira Sooriyan revolves around the protagonist, also played by Samyuktha Vijayan, who is assigned male at birth but struggles with their identity all through their school life, as they are not able to openly embrace their transgender identity in a homophobic world.
