Yaro Oraal (English: Someone Unknown) is a 1978 Malayalam film written, produced and directed by V. K. Pavithran. It was his debut as a director. It is one of the first early experiments in Malayalam cinema which introduced to a genre of personal cinema, which is deliberately anti-realist.[1] It deals with cynicism about the death through the suicide of a woman.[2] The film's music is composed by acclaimed film director G.
