Puthiya Theerangal (Malayalam: പുതിയ തീരങ്ങള്; English: The New Shores) is a 2012 Indian Malayalam film directed by Sathyan Anthikad, produced by Anto Joseph, and written by Benny P Nayarambalam. It stars Nedumudi Venu, Namitha Pramod and Nivin Pauly in the lead roles. The music is composed by Ilaiyaraaja. The film was a box office failure, a first for Sathyan Anthikad after long years of consistent box office successes.
The film is happening by the seaside.The story is focused on the life of a young girl named Thamara, who lives on her own at the shore, after the death of her parents. Sometime later she finds an old man and she feels like having got her father back. The story dwells on the bond between the two and how that changes in the presence of the few new people who land up and start to live on the banks of the sea.
Puthiya Theerangal is produced by Anto Joseph under the banner of Aan Mega Media and scripted by Benny P Nayarambalam. Audiography was done by M. R. Rajakrishnan .
The soundtrack will be composed by Ilaiyaraaja, with lyrics penned by Kaithapram. The album consists of three songs. The audio rights of the film were acquired by Mathrubhumi Music. The album was launched on 9 September 2012 at Kochi. The soundtrack received generally positive reviews from music critics. "Rajagopuram" song was widely appreciated and the pick of the album.
Puthiya Theerangal received mixed reviews upon release with most critics complaining that it is a typical Sathyan Anthikad film with nothing new to offer.

With clichéd situations and half-baked characters, the film is a lazy effort from one of Kerala’s most popular directors ever." Paresh C Palicha of Rediff.com says Puthiya Theerangal has some good performances but in the end it leaves us with mixed feelings. He rated the film
