Revisit Premam, Bheeshma Parvam and other top Malayalam entertainers on JioHotstar via OTTplay Premium
Soubin Shahir's 10-year challenge from Premam to Coolie
Coolie is an upcoming Tamil film, starring superstar Rajinikanth. The highly-anticipated film, helmed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, presents a sensational number led by Pooja Hegde. As Soubin Shahir steals the show in the foot-tapping number Monica, Malayalam cinephiles are reminded of another performance of Soubin Shahir from Premam.
The memes online feature collage of Soubin Shahir from Premam and the actor shaking a leg with Pooja Hegde in the song from the 2025 Tamil film, with the caption 10-year challenge. Notably, it has been 10 years since the release of the hugely popular Malayalam film.
Premam's Soubin Shahir scene: I don't know simple steps
Premam, the 2015 Malayalam film, starring Nivin Pauly and Sai Pallavi, was helmed by Alphonse Puthren. Soubin played Shivan Sir at the college where George and his buddies studied. When the lovely Malar Miss (Sai Pallavi) enters the college, both George and another college lecturer Vimal sir set her eyes on her. One of the most celebrated scenes from the movie, Malar Miss trains George and his friends for a dance performance. On the sidelines, we also see Vimal sir asking Shivan Sir to teach him some steps to impress her. When he does some steps, Vimal sir asks him to do something simple but Shivan sir aka Soubin says, 'I don't know anything simple.'
Another performance of Soubin from the song Parudeesa in Mammooty's Bheeshma Parvam is also being recalled by netizens, who believe that dance was much better than the recent song.
Both Premam and Bheeshma Parvam are streaming on JioHotstar via OTTplay Premium.

The movie tells the story of a woman who faced assault and took legal fight against the state. The board reportedly said that God's name should not be given to a woman who was assaulted.

The film was later forwarded to the CBFC headquarters in Mumbai, where officials demanded a change in the title. If the film's title is changed, many dialogues in the film mentioning the name will also need to be changed, as per the makers of the film. In response to this, the makers of 'JSK vs State of Kerala' moved the Kerala High Court to challenge the change. Apart from that, the artists from Malayalam cinema and serial fraternity under the umbrella of AMMA (Association of Malayalam Movie Actors), Producers Association and FEFKA ( Film Employees Federation of Kerala) staged a protest infront of the regional office of Central Bureau of Film Certification at Chitranjali Studio complex, Thiruvallam in Kerala's Thiruvananthapuram.
