Recalling their journey, the Manichitrathazhu actor expressed his pride in calling Mammootty more than just a friend but a brother. He said, “We have been brothers and friends for 40 years. I had the opportunity to share screen space with Ichakka (Mammootty) in 53 movies. We’ve produced five films together. We have supported each other through thick and thin. He’s always just a call away, standing by me. There is a deep mutual respect between us.”
On the professional front, Mohanlal has several exciting projects lined up, including Barroz, Kannappa, L2: Empuraan, Ram, and Vrushabha. Mammootty is gearing up for the release of his next film, Bazooka.
