Orange is a 2012 Indian Malayalam-language film directed by Biju Varkey who had earlier directed films like Devadasi, Chandranilekkulla Vazhi and Phantom. The film stars Kalabhavan Mani and Biju Menon.[1]
Yakobi is an orphan who works on a dairy farm, where he drives his own lorry on a contract basis. Orange is the name of his lorry. He falls in love with Saritha and they get marry. However, his sisters and relatives are not informed of this marriage. Later, Saritha bears a daughter, Orange. Whenever he goes to his native place, his relatives enquire why he remains a bachelor.
As usual when Yakobi was returning to Kambam after visiting his native place, a man asked him a free lift. While continuing their journey Yakobi learns that the man's name is Jith and he is going to an interview for a job in the dairy farm where Yakobi works. But they fail to arrive at the farm on time. Yakobi arranges a temporary job for Muthu at the dairy farm.
When Yakobi meets his old friend Baboottan, he invites him to his house, which becomes the turning point in the story.
The film has been shot on locations at Marayoor.
The film's soundtrack contains 5 songs, all composed by Manikanth Kadri and Afzal Yusuf. Lyrics by Rafeeq Ahmed, C. R. Menon and Muthamizhu.

A critic from The Times of India wrote that "The gags are half-hearted and pop-up like uninvited guests in an otherwise dull plot. Orange, in spite of some powerful performances from Mani and Biju Menon, fails to impress the viewer".[2]
