Parimala Teacher; a mainstream comedic role reflecting her image shift. (2020 Biopic)
Unlike traditional romantic dramas (e.g., those from mainstream studios like Hallmark or Bollywood), Sakeela’s narratives rarely feature prolonged courtship, external obstacles (e.g., family disapproval without sexual motive), or mutual character growth. Instead, "romance" is often distilled into direct proposition, initial reluctance, and subsequent surrender.
In this blockbuster Malayalam film, Sakeela starred alongside Nivin Pauly, with whom she shared a sweet and endearing on-screen romance. Their chemistry added depth to the film's narrative, making it a memorable watch for audiences.
