Minnaram (Malayalam: മിന്നാരം) is a 1994 Malayalam musical romantic drama film co-written and directed by Priyadarshan, starring Mohanlal,Shobana, Thilakan, Sankaradi, K. P. Ummer, Jagathy Sreekumar, Geetha Vijayan, Venu Nagavally, and Lalu Alex. The story was written by Cherian Kalpakavadi, while the screenplay and dialogues were written by Priyadarshan himself.

Bobby (Mohanlal), orphaned at a young age, is brought up as his own son by his uncle, Retd. I.G Matthews (Thilakan). He is betrothed to Chackochan's (K. P. Ummer) daughter, Tina (Anju). However, his old flame from college, Nina (Shobhana), turns up with a toddler allegedly fathered by Bobby. He denies this vehemently and goes to great lengths to prove her wrong, whilst keeping this under wraps from his fiancée. Despite a slew of hilarious events involving Unnunni (Jagathi Sreekumar) and his paranoia about his wife Daisy (Subhashini) seeming to have an illicit affair with Bobby, Bobby is unable to prove his claims that the child is not a result of his relationship with Nina in the past. In the meantime, Nina develops a strong bond among all the members in Bobby's family, except Boby himself.

Eventually, having discovered the truth that Bobby is married prior to Tina, Chackochan calls off the wedding, and publicly humiliates Matthews for the dishonesty. With nothing left to lose, Bobby is prepared to accept Nina as his wife, but Nina adamantly refusues. She divulges the truth about the child to Bobby's cousin, Baby (Venu Nagavalli). During the days of his straining marriage, Baby had an affair with Nina's sister, who later died during childbirth, thus leaving Nina in the dire situation to deliver the child in her father's care. Initially, Baby refuses, for the fear of the sordid fact tearing apart his married life. But Matthews overhears the conversation and feels sorry for Bobby, who is now proven innocent.
