(1985) with Mammooty and Shobana. The movie was later dubbed in Tamil as "Kanne Kalaimaane".

The whole plot runs in a form of story telling when Bhanu Chandar released from the jail and he happens to travel in a school bus. He hopes that Archana still waits for him even after several years of his jail, thus the name of this film "Nireekshana" which means The Waiting.
