Granny - (Short) (2026)

Granny - (Short) is a Malayalam psychological horror film about Rony, a home nurse who moves into a remote house to care for an elderly woman known simply as Granny. What begins as a caregiving assignment becomes increasingly unsettling as Granny's behavior grows stranger and Rony's confidence in his surroundings begins to erode.
