Kunchacko Boban reopens a cursed cold case in Kiran Das’ Unmadham, watch trailer | Malayalam News

Published by Parlour News

3 min readHyderabadJul 19, 2026 12:05 PM IST The official trailer of Unmadham, starring  and Lijomol Jose, was released on Saturday. Directed by Kiran Das, Unmadham follows Shelly, a police constable played by Kunchacko Boban, whose personal life is already under strain. His wife, played by Lijomol Jose in her first on-screen pairing with Boban, wants them to move out of their government police housing quarters. To secure a transfer, Shelly takes on a cold case file that has sat untouched for years, one that other officers have avoided because it is believed to carry a curse. What begins as a routine investigation quickly unravels into something far more unsettling, as the case pulls Shelly deeper into a web of superstition, paranoia and psychological unravelling.

The footage is atmospheric and performance-driven, with Kunchako Boban’s Shelly visibly deteriorating as the investigation progresses. There are hints of the supernatural, but the trailer keeps it ambiguous, leaving open the question of whether the curse …
