Muralidharan turned producer with the 1994 film Aranmanai Kavalan, starring Sarathkumar. The production company went on to deliver blockbusters like Karthik's Gokulathil Seethai and were behind some of the biggest successes in the 90s and mid-2000s. Their last production venture was the Jayam Ravi-starrer Sakalakala Vallavan.
The sudden demise of the producer is being mourned by film personalities and actor-director Manobala, producers KT Kunjumon and Dhananjayan have tweeted out their condolence message.
