Onnanu Nammal is a 1984 Indian Malayalam drama film directed by Mohan Gandhi, starring Mammootty, Mohanlal and Seema in lead roles while Adoor Bhavani, K. R. Vijaya, Menaka Sureshkumar and Sujatha provide supporting roles. The film was produced by Malayalam film producer V. B. K. Menon and was a commercial success at the box office.

The story of Onnanu Nammal revolves around two friends, Raju (Mammootty) and Vijayan (Mohanlal), who work as mechanics in a garage. Raju is a sincere and good-hearted person who finds himself in trouble often due to the misdeeds of Vijayan, who is a flirt and a gambler. However, despite their differences, the two share an unbreakable bond of friendship.

The plot takes a twist when Raju falls in love with Devi (Seema), a rich girl from a nearby town, to whom Vijayan had also been close to. Devi, however, reciprocates Raju's love and the two get married. Vijayan, who had developed feelings for Devi, becomes envious of Raju and plots to separate them, leading to a conflict in their friendship.

The film highlights the themes of friendship, love, jealousy, and betrayal, and showcases brilliant performances by the lead actors. Both Mammootty and Mohanlal leave no stone unturned to bring their respective characters to life on the big screen.

Mammootty, who plays the role of a sincere and honest person, excels in his portrayal of Raju. His calm demeanor, coupled with his serious expressions, makes his character a highly relatable one. Mohanlal, on the other hand, essays the role of a man who is cheerful, carefree, and at times devious. His expressions, dialogue delivery, and the mannerisms he displays throughout the movie make it difficult to not become a fan of his character.

Seema, who plays the female lead, brings in the necessary charm, grace, and energy to the film. Her performance is complemented by the strong supporting cast consisting of Adoor Bhavani, K. R. Vijaya, Menaka Sureshkumar, and Sujatha.

The film's music, composed by A. T. Ummer, also adds to the charming tone of the movie. The songs, which range from romantic ballads to peppy duets, are a delight to listen to even today.

Overall, Onnanu Nammal is a must-watch for fans of Malayalam cinema as it showcases some of the best performances by some of the industry's biggest stars. The film's simple narrative, coupled with the brilliant performances by the lead actors, make it a timeless classic that has stood the test of time.
