Swapnakoodu

Nest of Dreams) is a 2003 Indian Malayalam-language romantic comedy film co-written and directed by Kamal.

[1][2] The movie follows three young men: Deepu, who is unable to express his feelings; Alex Chandy alias Kunjunju, who makes a pass at every girl he meets, and Ashtamoorthy, who does not take anything seriously.

While studying a Hotel Management course in Pondicherry, they become lodgers in the top floor of a house owned by Sophy, who lives there with her daughters: Kamala and Padma.

Deepu is too shy to express his feelings for Kamala, while Ashtamoorthy fakes kidney stones to skip class and get time alone with her.

Kunjunju and Deepu make Ashtamoorthy the Rakhi brother of Kamala to block this, but both continue to pursue her.

One day Chandramathi, the owner of the area, comes to the house and orders Sophy to leave immediately as they cannot pay their rent.

Philippose arrives from Chennai to visit his nieces and pick up some belongings he had there, but is ejected by the boys for disturbing Padma and Kamala.

The next day, as the boys prepare to leave, Kunjunju makes one last attempt to unite Deepu and Kamala.

Deepu, who by now knows that Kamala actually loves Kunjunju, turns around, and they go back to her, only to discover that Philippose has taken her home to Chennai.

A critic from Sify wrote that "On the whole Kamal has dished out an artificial visual bubblegum movie for those who crave for sugarcoated entertainment".
