I had seen both these films from the theatres.
Yodha released 1992 Onam alongside Adwaitham and mammu's pappayude swantham appoos(PSA).
It took a very good openeing.. but mysteriously slid later..probably cos the families preferred PSA. Nevertheless it completed 100 days as noon-show in a few centres and IS A HIT. Adwaitham became a bigger hit than Yodha.PSA was the Onam winner that year(olathumbathirunnu ...song took the families by storm.. i remember very well).It was a very very rare victory for mammu over lal in a direct clash. altho both of lal's Onam releases defeated mammu's 2nd Onam film that year- Kizhakkan Pathrose.
Mayamayuram released in 1993.. it had a very quiet release..without much fanfare.. there was no publicity whatsoever.
It flopped miserably, altho the film was fantastic.
