Mohanlal joins the celebrations around Mammootty’s recovery.
Mohanlal joined the celebrations around Mammootty’s recovery on Tuesday by sharing an iconic throwback photo of the duo. The candid image shows Mohanlal planting a kiss on Mammootty’s cheek while the veteran smiles with his eyes closed, enjoying the affectionate moment.
The post instantly struck a chord with fans, who filled the comments section with love and relief. Many hailed the photo as the perfect representation of the brotherhood between Malayalam cinema’s two biggest stars.
Fans Rejoice After Health Speculations
The gesture comes amid updates from close aides and industry figures confirming Mammootty’s full recovery after months of speculation surrounding his health. Reports suggesting that the 72-year-old was undergoing treatment for cancer had worried fans, though his team repeatedly dismissed the claims.
With his absence from public events adding to concerns, Mohanlal’s affectionate post reassured admirers while also celebrating their enduring bond.
Over Four Decades of Friendship
Mammootty and Mohanlal have been contemporaries and friends for more than four decades, sharing screen space in over 50 films — a rarity in any film industry. Their camaraderie, both on and off screen, remains cherished by fans who see them as the twin pillars of Malayalam cinema.
Mammootty’s Upcoming Projects
With his health restored, Mammootty is preparing for a busy lineup. He will resume shooting for Mahesh Narayanan’s Patriot in September, where he reunites with Mohanlal in what is expected to be one of Malayalam cinema’s biggest collaborations in recent years.
In addition, he is completing dubbing for Kalamkaval, co-starring Vinayakan, which is expected to hit theatres by late September or early October.
Mammootty’s comeback not only eases fans’ concerns but also sets the stage for a celebratory return that is already being hailed as one of the biggest moments for the Malayalam film industry this year.
