Mohanlal
and
Mammootty,
the
superstars
of
Malayalam
movie
industry,
have
been
considered
as
two
of
the
finest
actors
Indian
cinema
has
ever
seen.
It
is
extremely
difficult
for
both
the
industry
members
and
audiences
to
choose
between
Mammootty
and
Mohanlal.
But
recently,
director
Ranjith
stunned
the
audiences,
especially
the
Mohanlal
fans,
by
choosing
Mammootty
over
him.
The
director
labeled
the
megastar
as
his
personal
favourite
in
the
recently
aired
Lalsalam
show,
hosted
by
the
complete
actor.
When
Mohanlal
asked
Ranjith
'Me
or
Mammootty?'
during
the
rapid
fire
round
in
the
show,
Ranjith
answered
'Mammootty'
without
a
second
thought.
The
complete
actor
welcomed
Ranjith's
reply
wholeheartedly
as
if
he
already
knew
the
writer-director's
answer.
The
film-maker
had
earlier
revealed
that
he
shares
a
very
close
personal
bonding
with
Mammootty,
while
with
Mohanlal,
it
is
a
more
professional
bond.
With
Mammootty,
he
can
discuss
every
topic
in
the
world,
including
his
personal
life
and
family
matters.
According
to
Ranjith,
it
is
Mohanlal
who
taught
him
to
control
the
temper.
The
director
had
also
stated
that
making
characters
for
Mammootty
is
much
easier.
He
points
out
that
he
can
easily
convince
Mammootty
to
play
a
role.
