There is this one scene of Vivek -” Eppadi iruntha Naan ippadi aayitten” that I search for and watch often.

The Mohanlal-Urvashi flashback track in 1992 movie Aham is one of Malayalam’s most well conceived and yet underrated segments. I wonder how Mohanlal couldn’t win any awards for this Also Read : Devadoothan and the frames that were ahead of its time
