Sanal K Sasidharan is one true maverick maestro who has come up in recent times in Indian cinema. His Malayalam films are rooted in the land he lives in yet they resonate with vibrant emotions with the rest of the country. His second feature length film ‘An Off-Day Game’ is based on a story by Unni R. On the eve of the state election, five middle-aged men get a day off. They decide to enjoy their day off by commuting to a desolate place that the director never really describes to us. Therefore, it carries certain mysticism with it. As soon as they get there the service woman Geetha (Abhija Sivakala) attracts their attention. The silent greedy gaze that hovers around her body in a safe distance wraps the viewer in deep claustrophobia.
