Harikrishnans is a 1998 Indian Malayalam-language mystery buddy comedy film written and directed by Fazil.

Juhi Chawla, Innocent, Shamili, Nedumudi Venu, Cochin Haneefa, Jagadish, Maniyanpilla Raju and Kunchacko Boban play the supporting cast.

They discover that Guptan actually died due to poisoning by his relatives who were doctors who wanted to amass his wealth.

In the end, Meera opts for a random method to choose her life partner, as she is equally fond of both Harikrishnans.

J. Yesudas sang his parts in two different voices, to simulate the singing of both the lead actors during the song sequences in the film.

Harikrishnans had multiple climaxes to appease the fan base of the lead actors Mammootty and Mohanlal.

Soon after the release, CBFC was quick to send a notice to the producer warning that the board would take legal action unless the uncensored alternate ending (Mammootty version) is removed from the exhibition.

[7] Jayalakshmi K. of Deccan Herald wrote "Perhaps if Fazil had decided what he wanted, a love story or a murder case, the movie might have fared better.

"[8] Padmanabha Venugopal of Indian Express wrote "Though it is entertaining, the movie doesn't have the support of a good script.

[9] D. S. Ramanujam of The Hindu called it "another fine example of director Fazil's directorial acumen" and added that the two lead actors "are in the thick of the drama right through and share the acting honours with their elegant performances".
