Wiki.

Meenathil Thalikettu (transl. Wedding in Meenam) is a 1998 Indian Malayalam-language comedy drama film directed by Rajan Sankaradi and written by A. K. Sajan and A. K. Santhosh from a story by Lal Jose. It stars Dileep, Tejali Ghanekar, Thilakan, Zeenath, and Jagathy Sreekumar. The plot follows Omanakkuttan, a 23-year-old, who is still in high school, who has to marry his friend's sister, Malu, under pressure.

Meenathil Thalikettu was based on an idea that occurred to Dileep in which "a schoolboy gets married due to circumstances". This was further developed into a story by Lal Jose. The music was composed by Ouseppachan.

The film was remade in Kannada as Kanasina Loka (2004).
