Christmas Rathri (transl. Christmas Night) is a 1961 Indian Malayalam-language film, directed and produced by P. Subramaniam and was filmed at Merryland Studio. The film stars T. K. Balachandran, Thikkurissy Sukumaran Nair, Miss Kumari, M. G. Soman and Adoor Pankajam. The film had musical score by Br. Lakshmanan.[1] The plot revolves around Advocate George (Thikkurissi) and Annie (Miss Kumari).
