Manivathoorile Aayiram Sivarathrikal (English: The 1000 Sivarathries of Manivathoor) is 1987 Malayalam film, starring Mammootty and directed by Fazil. It was the last film of the eminent music director M. B. Sreenivasan, who died less than a year after the film was released.

Plot Thirteen-year-old Vineetha and her father, Dr. Vinayachandran go to visit her grandfather, John Samuel, in Ooty on the death anniversary of Vineetha's mother Neena, who died in an accident. The movie flashes back to when Vinay met Neena at a church service and fell in love. Both the families, despite belonging to different religions, consented to the couple marrying. After the wedding, Vinay takes Neena to his home back in Manivathoor to meet his mother (played by Sukhumari). Neena accidentally tips over the sacred deepam, which is seen as an omen that they would not have a long married life.
