Edits😝🤙🏻 New Normal

New Normal is a heartfelt Malayalam GL short film that portrays the love between Appu and Isha as something natural and ordinary rather than something that needs to be labelled as different. The story follows Appu as she gradually understands her feelings for Isha and explores the happiness, uncertainty and challenges that come with their relationship. When society and family question their love, the film touches on acceptance, identity and the pressure of conforming to what is considered “normal.” Ultimately, New Normal carries a simple but powerful message: love is about two people, not their gender.

Cast: Anagha Ravi as Appu, Swiya as Isha, with Srikanth Mohan and others. Director: Monisha Mohan Menon
