Madhu's first film, Kakkothikkavile Appooppan Thaadikal (1986) was also a hit. Madhu Muttom is a scriptwriter who entered the history of Malayalam cinema with his work in a single film. The phenomenal success in box office and among critics of his earlier film Manichithrathaazhu in 1994 is largely credited to Madhu Muttom, who remained silent for too long even after such a hit. Madhu tried a comeback in 2007 with a science fiction film - a rare breed in Mollywood. The film titled Bharathan is the second venture by the director Anil Das who debuted by Sargavasantham in 1995. Bharathan Effect was however blasted by the critics and became a box office bomb. He is currently residing in Muttom,his home-town, away from lime light.
