PARAVA is a Malayalam language comedy drama in which two young friends attempt to train the perfect racing pigeon.

violence
There are multiple fights and brawls featuring slaps, punches and kicks. One man breaks a piece of wood over another man's head, and two men are struck with a wooden oar. A man is stabbed in the sole of his foot through his shoe, without blood or injury detail. Blood leaks from a man's mouth after his head is knocked into a pile of bricks.
threat and horror
A man makes sexually suggestive comments to his female employee and propositions her for sex, causing her great distress. The verbal references are not graphic.
drugs
There are brief images of drug paraphernalia including bloody discarded needles, and of people passed out or semi-conscious after misusing drugs. The work as a whole does not endorse drug misuse.
additional issues
Mild sex references include a scene in which sexual-sounding moaning can be heard coming from a cinema screen after some young boys sneak into a screening. We don't see the screen itself, just the comically enraptured faces of the boys. There is brief, non-graphic sight of a dead dog after the animal is accidentally killed off screen. Mild bad language includes 'shit', 'asshole', 'damn' and 'hell'.
