意味
Prohibition of smoking.
文化的背景
Kerala has some of the strictest public smoking laws in India. The phrase is ubiquitous on public transport and government buildings. Every time a character smokes on screen, a mandatory warning 'പുകവലി ആരോഗ്യത്തിന് ഹാനികരം' (Smoking is injurious to health) appears at the bottom. It is traditionally considered very rude to smoke in front of teachers, parents, or elders in Kerala society. The 'Smoke-free Kerala' initiative has made this phrase a part of school curriculums and local government campaigns.
Politeness Matters
Always add 'Dayavayi' (Please) before the phrase if you are talking to a stranger or an elder to avoid sounding rude.
Strict Laws
Public smoking in Kerala can lead to fines. If you see a sign, take it seriously.

The 'Vali' Connection
Remember 'Vali' means pull. You'll see this on doors too (Valിക്കുക - Pull). It helps you remember the verb for smoking!
Cinema Warnings
Watch for the text at the bottom of Malayalam movies; it's a great way to see the phrase in a formal context.

Both. It's spoken by bus conductors, security guards, and family members.
