Cinemala is a Malayalam comedy programme produced by Diana Silvester and broadcast on Asianet every Sunday at 1:30 pm (IST). The show started out as a film-based satire and later began to delve into contemporary political and social issues.[1] Its topics are current events. The characters are popular mimicry artists on Malayalam television.
On 7 April 2013, Cinemala completed 1000+ episodes and is still going.[2] Each programme lasts thirty minutes. An episode criticized the government of Kerala for not handling healthcare issues properly. The programme does not take a political side, but merely raises public awareness.
