His movies always have been talking about issues and solutions in relation with women empowerment. They clearly reflect what the issue is and what is triggering these problems. One of his movies Atithi (1974) was described as one of the finest films ever made in Malayalam to address those decisions which are forced on women in India. This movie basically talks about a woman who is strong enough to free herself from an indecisive husband.
