Actor
Mammootty
is
known
as
the
megastar
of
Malayalam.
Mammootty
is
a
person
who
maintains
friendships
inside
and
outside
Malayalam
cinema.
Mammootty
has
a
very
close
friendship
with
Mukesh,
another
star
of
Malayalam
cinema.
Mammootty
and
Mukesh
are
the
favourite
stars
of
the
Malayali
audience.
Their
old
films
are
still
winning
over
audiences
today.
Mukesh's
film
career
started
with
Mammootty.
Mukesh
entered
the
cinema
through
the
movie
'Balloon'
which
was
released
in
1982.
Although
the
actor's
career
changed
with
the
Siddique-Lal
film
Ramji
Rao,
Mukesh
was
able
to
shine
in
Mohanlal-Mammootty
and
Suresh
Gopi
films.
Now
an
old
interview
video
of
both
of
them
is
going
viral
on
social
media.

candidly
discusses
his
close
friendship
with
Mukesh
in
it.
Mammootty
is
typically
characterised
as
being
extremely
serious
and
quick-tempered
person.
But
Mukesh
remembers
Mammootty
as
a
nervous
and
emotional
person
who
burst
into
tears
for
trivial
matter.
It
is
about
an
accident
that

Balloon
Shooting
Days
&
The
Accident
"The
shooting
of
the
movie
'Balloon'
in
which
me
and
Mammootty
acted,
was
in
the
Chenkotta.
My
friend
Bhadran
used
to
come
to
the
shooting
location
with
his
bullet.
Mammootty
showed
interest
in
riding
the
bullet
often.
At
that
time,
I
had
asked
whether
Mammootty
knew
how
to
drive
these
things.
His
reply
was
that
KG
George
called
him
to
act
in
the
film
Mela
because
he
knew
that." Mukesh
Said.
"One
day
Mammootty
invited
me
to
travel
with
him
on
this
bike
during
the
break
of
shooting,
and
he
drove
the
bike
through
a
road
in
Chenkotta.
It
was
a
muddy
road
with
no
tar.
When
the
bike
turned
a
corner,
it
collided
with
a
cyclist.
I
suddenly
jumped
down
and
saw
Mammootty
bleeding
from
his
head.
He
had
a
small
wound.
Mammootty,
who
is
usually
strong,
was
seen
bursting
into
tears.
Mammootty
cried,
asking
who
would
call
him
to
act
after
his
facial
injury."
Mukesh
said
that
no
matter
how
much
he
tried,
he
could
not
stop
Mammootty
from
crying.

Mukesh
said
that
even
now,
when
he
listens
to
Mammootty's
mass
dialogues,
he
remembers
the
incident
where
Mammootty
cried
that
day.
