Mr. Marumakan (English Translation: Mr. Son in law) is a 2012 Malayalam comedy-family drama film written by the duo Udayakrishna-Siby K. Thomas and directed by Sandhya Mohan. The movie stars Dileep and Sanusha in the lead roles and Bhagyaraj, Khushboo, Sheela, Biju Menon, Nedumudi Venu and Riyaz Khan in supporting roles.
The film tells the story of three rich women, Raja Kokila, her adopted daughter Raja Mallika and her daughter Raja Lakshmi who believe that a woman can survive without the help of a man. However, the entry of a lawyer trained drama director Ashok Raj into their lives forces them to revise their opinions. Critical reactions to the film were mostly mixed response, but the film managed to become a hit at the box office.
Ashok Raj (Dileep) is the son of Rajagopalan Thampy (Nedumudi Venu), whose family is based in Ottappalam. Although Ashok Raj is a lawyer, his interest lies in reviving a defunct drama troupe called Bharatha Kalakshetram, which used to be run by his family. He is directing a drama titled Dasavatharam for the troupe and is also the lead actor in the play. Ashok Raj even changes his name to "Ashok Chakravarthy" as he thinks it has much more punch as a name for an artiste. His elder brother Babu Raj (Biju Menon), who runs a company, is now in a financial mess.
Balasubrahmanyam (Bhagyaraj) is a bank officer who has come to initiate legal proceedings against the elder brother Babu Raj to get him to repay the loan that he had taken to start his venture. As it turns out, the bank officer is estranged from his haughty wife Raja Mallika (Kushboo Sundar) and daughter Raja Lakshmi (Sanusha). His wife hails from a wealthy family and is the daughter of the even haughtier Raja Kokila (Sheela), the boss of Raja's group of companies. The trio believe that a woman can survive easily, without the help of a man. The entry of Ashok Raj into their lives forces them to revise their opinions. On the parallel, we are shown a romance story between Ashok Raj and teenaged Raja Lakshmi.
