The Face of Indian Cinema | Happy Birthday Mammookka


How to love your own profession? In that sense, Mammootty is a textbook for everyone.

I remember what Sathyan Anthikkad once said. The first period of the actor Mammootty. Once when he saw Mammootty getting up in the morning and exercising without rest, he asked in amazement.

"Didn't you go to bed very late yesterday? Couldn't you have slept for a while? .."

Mammootty could have avoided answering that harmless question.

But Mammootty said without any fuss.

"A new actor, Rahman, has come down. I have to keep competing with them, right? "

Mammootty, who started his career in cinema only too late, was in his late thirties.  His main rivals in cinema at that time, Mohanlal and Rahman, were only in their 20s.

The man could not lag behind anyone just because of his age.

He foresaw Mammootty for the next thirty years, realizing the potential of his own body and voice. That’s why he still stands head over heels in the field with the excitement of a thirties, even though many of the co-founders failed halfway through. 

The other is Mammootty's observation lesson.

When Mammootty plays a character, his gait, body language, and character are very different from his previous films. There is a difference between the two poles between Bhaskara Patel of Vidheyan and Mada of Ponthanmada.  But both these films were released in the same year. Only those who recognize Mammootty as the one who gave life to both the characters can do so.

Behind his ability to become a character in every detail is a well-organized life.  Has an observational intellect that amazes anyone. I remember what Mr Mohanlal said on this occasion.

 "Mammootty is an actor, a man born on earth just to act."

Happy birthday to that great actor and man!
