Top 5 Mohanlal Viswanathan movies to watch:

-Vanapraatham (1999)
This movie was life-changing for the actor. After watching this movie, a French technique garnered the actor with praises. He added, “if this actor were born on the other side, he would have bagged many Oscars.” The film essentially revolves around Kunhikuttan, who is a Kathakali artist. He slowly becomes the object of desire and seeming delusion of Subhadra, the Maharaj niece. It is a must-watch film for the performance and the storyline.

-Kireedam (1989)
Yet another stellar performance by Mohanlal Viswanathan. The story of this movie is heart-wrenching and utterly emotional. It highlights the story of a common man whose fate is opposite to what he does in life. The story will grip you right from the beginning and will highlight the dark side of society.

-Sadayam (1992)
The plot of this story would somewhat come a little different. It is not a very familiar story, and the plot is seemingly dark as well. The story is about how death comes as a savior sometimes when everything else in life is utterly disturbing. The story also powerfully portrays how society sees women and how every woman should stand up for her rights. This movie is a dark story but with a message and performance.

-Devasuram (1993)
In this movie, he has broken his usual image and has turned to a completely different character. He has portrayed a toxic man’s nature, and he later became the face for the same in Kerala. The image that was created in this movie was also seen in many of his later films.

-Kilukkam (1991)
This movie is a light-hearted comedy movie and is still one of the best in Malayalam. This movie is a little underrated, but it is best to binge on to forget the stress in our daily life. If you decide to watch one film out of the 5, watch this one. To learn more about films, entertainment, web series, and more, stay tuned to world wire.
