If
you
take
a
close
look
at
Mohanlal's
filmography,
you
could
come
across
an
interesting
fact.
Yes,
we
are
talking
about
Mohanlal's
fondness
for
the
characters
which
are
named
Sunny.
Here,
today
we
list
5
films
of
Mohanlal
which
had
the
actor
playing
the
character
named
Sunny..
Sunny
In
Visa
Visa
is
a
movie
that
Mohanlal
did
in
the
initial
days
of
his
acting
career.
This
film
directed
by
Balu
Kiriyath
had
Mohanlal
in
the
role
of
a
character
named
Sunny,
a
rich
and
happy-go-lucky
guy.
The
film
also
had
Mammootty
playing
an
important
role.
Sunny
In
Sukhamo
Devi
This
is
one
of
the
most
loved
characters
of
Malayalam
cinema.
Sunny,
the
character
played
by
Mohanlal,
is
the
epitome
of
friendship
and
we
still
keep
that
character
close
to
our
hearts.
Mohanlal
played
the
role
with
utmost
perfection,
making
it
memorable.
Dr
Sunny
In
Ulladakkam
A
calm,
composed
and
mature
character
portrayed
effectively
by
Mohanlal.
Dr
Sunny
is
a
psychiatrist
who
runs
a
hospital
and
his
life
changes
when
Reshma
(Amala)
comes
into
his
life
as
a
patient.
Mohanlal
won
the
Kerala
State
Award
for
the
Best
Actor
for
his
performance
in
this
film.
Dr
Sunny
Joseph
In
Manichithrathazhu
How
can
we
forget
this
easily
identifiable
character,
which
etched
a
mark
of
its
own
in
Malayalam
cinema?
Dr
Sunny
Joseph,
who
is
a
bit
eccentric,
funny
but
focussed,
was
brilliantly
portrayed
by
Mohanlal.
We
can't
imagine
anyone
else
other
than
Mohanlal
in
that
particular
role.
Mohanlal
went
on
to
reprise
the
same
role
in
Priyadarshan's
Geethanjali(2013).
Sunny
Palamattom
In
Varnapakittu
This
time
Mohanlal
did
come
in
the
role
of
an
'achayan' who
turns
a
big
businessman
in
Singapore.
Mohanlal
was
at
ease
as
Sunny
Palomattam
and
gave
a
very
fine
and
memorable
performance.
It
has
to
be
noted
that,
most
of
the
films
given
in
the
above
list
were
big
hits
and
have
a
cult
fan
following
even
now.
So,
it
wouldn't
be
wrong
to
consider
that
the
name
Sunny
as
a
lucky
mascot
for
Mohanlal.
Similarly,
we
have
seen
other
actors
from
Malayalam
industry
also
having
a
special
affection
towards
a
particular
name.
Dr
Sunny
Joseph,
from
Manichithrathazhu,
is
the
most
remembered
one
among
the
lot.
The
character
is
so
popular
just
like
the
movie
Manichithrathazhu.
When
we
hear
the
name
Dr
Sunny
Joseph,
it
would
be
Mohanlal
who
comes
to
our
mind
first.
Including
Manichithrathazhu,
Mohanlal
has
had
the
on-screen
name
Sunny
in
six
films.
Out
of
the
six
films,
Geethanjali(2013)
had
the
actor
reprising
the
role
of
Dr
Sunny
Joseph
from
Manichithrathazhu.
Well,
we
are
eagerly
waiting
for
Mohanlal's
next
appearance
as
Sunny.
Hopefully,
that
would
also
become
another
memorable
character
like
the
others
in
the
list.
