What happens

Godfather is a 1991 Indian Malayalam-language action comedy drama film written and directed by Siddique–Lal. It is produced by Appachan under the banner of Swargachithra. The film stars N. N. Pillai, Mukesh, Thilakan, Innocent, Bheeman Raghu, Jagadish, Siddique, Kanaka, K. P. A. C. Lalitha and Philomina in supporting roles. The film revolves around the rivalry between two families, the Anjooran and Aanappara houses and the consequences faced when two members of the families fall in love. Godfather was initially planned to be released before In Harihar Nagar (1990), however Siddique-Lal felt that the film's script was not complete, and as a result stretched production time. The film was released on 15 November 1991 to positive reviews and became a commercial success, running for a record 404 days at Sreekumar theatre in Trivandrum. It was also the highest grossing Malayalam film at that time. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
