Aaram Thamburan (The Sixth Lord) is one of the most successful Malayalam films and was directed by Shaji Kailas starring Mohanlal as Jagannadhan alias Jagan. The movies has a cult following and the characters in the movies are fondly remembered by the Malayalis.This is probably the first in a series of films in which Mohanlal played larger-than-life roles, the others being Narasimham and Ravanaprabhu and Thandavam. This film's songs are immortalised by the compositions by the legendary Malayalam music director Raveendran. The song Hari Muraliravam goes down in Malayalam Film Songs History as a masterpiece delivered by the rich voice of another legend, Yesudas. The acting of Mohanlal and Manju Warrier have been worth mentioning. Manju has given a spectacular and natural performance and can be easily termed as one of her superlative performances.
