Rathinirvedam was one of the most influential Malayalam film released in the year 1978. Jayabharathi played the pivotal role of Rathichechi in the film, directed by the renowned director Late Bharathan and written by the legendary Late Padmarajan. Krishnachandran was the male lead.

Now after 32 years, T K Rajeev Kumar remakes the film with the same title, with Shwetha Menon and Sreejith Vijay in the leading roles. Manianpilla Raju, Shammi Thilakan, Pakru, K.P.A.C Lalitha, Sobha Mohan, Maya Viswanath, Master Kunjan, Baby Ammu, and Baby Meera Nair are the other actors in the cast.

G Suresh Kumar produces the movie under the banner Revathy Kalaamandhir. Music is scored by M Jayachandran for the lyrics of Murugan Kattakada. Manoj Pillai handles camera.

Rathinirvedam is the story of a young boy Pappu who falls in love with a woman, Rathi, elder to him. Pappu tries to win Rathi, but she resists his attempts in the beginning, but later on falls for him. How the relationship changes their life is the story of the movie.

Rathinirvedam was a classic film with the signature of the renowned film makers Bharathan and Padmarajan. Let's hope T K Rajeev Kumar can recreate the film with the same touch.

Jayabharathy made a commendable performance in the 1978 Rathinirvedam. Now we all have to wait and see if Swetha Menon can do it again.
