Comrade in America (abbreviated as CIA) is a 2017 Indian Malayalam-language adventure film directed by Amal Neerad, starring Dulquer Salmaan and Karthika Muralidharan in the lead roles.

The film revolves around the travel of Aji (Dulquer Salmaan), a communist from Kerala who travels to the United States illegally (a "donkey flight") via Latin America and the Mexican border to get to his girlfriend Sarah (Karthika Muralidharan) in time before she is forced to marry another person.

Within weeks, he receives news from his comrade Hari that Sara's parents have taken her back to the United States and that she intends to marry another man.

He finds out that there is no way that he can get a visa within the period of the marriage and so decides to illegally enter to the United States through Mexico as suggested by his cousin Cyril, who is in America.

Aji denies his offer and jokes to him that he has now found an alternative for a side dish for consuming alcoholic beverages and says that his homeland calls him.

In a post-credits scene, it explains that Aji's political opinions were not a success either since Kora Sir, the local Kerala Congress leader, won the election and so did Donald Trump in the US.

Writing for Times of India, Sanjith Sidhardhan said that "The film is an entertaining affair, which has humour, drama, great visuals, a good soundtrack and most of all, a splendid performance by Dulquer.

"[8] Anu James of International Business Times gave 3.5 stars out of five and wrote that "Comrade in America is an entertaining flick with Dulquer's impressive performance, few one-liners, beautiful picturisation, catchy music and after all with Amal Neerad touch.

"[9] Prem Udayabhanu of Malayala Manorama writes "Dulquer Salmaan is ushered in with the aura of a mass appearance and that sets the tempo of narrative, which also hinges on a beautiful father-son portrayal, though they are opposite poles in the political spectrum.

"[10] Elizabeth Thomas, in her review for Deccan Chronicle, gave 3.5 stars out of five and wrote that "CIA is, in many ways, a fresh attempt by Amal Neerad.
