Screenwriters like Sreenivasan and the late A. K. Lohithadas elevated mundane conversation to a chess match of wit. The iconic character of 'Dasamoolam Damu' (played by Srinivasan) or the deadpan sarcasm of Jagathy Sreekumar’s characters are not just comic relief; they are anthropological studies. In Kerala, sarcasm is a defense mechanism against poverty, a tool for political dissent, and a form of entertainment.

Consequently, dialogue writing in Malayalam cinema is considered a high art, almost on par with literature. Screenwriters like Sreenivasan and the late A
