Kudayathoor is a village in Idukki district [1] which is located along the Thodupuzha-Puliyanmala road in the Indian state of Kerala. [2] Kudayathoor is known for its scenery mostly because of the towering presence of Western ghats on one side.[ citation needed ] A number of Malayalam films have also been shot in this area, including Kunjikoonan , Vasanthiyum Lakshmiyum Pinne Njaanum , Vismayathumbathu , Drishyam , Kadha Parayumbol , Rasathanthram , Aadu , and Vellimoonga .
