Mohanlal As Narendran & Krishnan Unni In Mayamayooram
The film scripted by Ranjith and directed by Sibi Malayil, had Mohanlal in a dual role. Mohanlal enacted the roles of twin brothers. But, both the characters never appear together on the screen.

Up to some extent, the concept of dual roles are against the logic of the viewers but certain movies and film-makers make use of the creative liberty to proper use.
