Mammootty & Rishab Shetty In Frontline For National Best Actor Award: The year 2024 was remarkable and phenomenal for the Southern film industry. It all began a year earlier with 2023 making massive hits and critically acclaimed films from Telugu, Kannada, Telugu, and Malayalam. With films that have achieved global recognition and performances that are impeccable, the race for the country's prestigious National Film Awards for actors and filmmakers is more than intense.

Mammootty's 'Nanpakal Nerathu Mayakkam,' 'Rorschach', 'Christopher,' 'Kannur Squad,' and 'Kaathal-The Core' have not only earned big bucks at the box office but remained one of the best works of the actors associated with these films along with the technicians. Films like Nanpakal Nerathu Mayakkam, and Kaathal-The Core have won international appreciation and showcased Mammootty in a never-seen-before avatar in his stellar five decades of career in the movies.

Mammootty Vs. Rishab Shetty For 'Best Actor' Award!

According to the interesting debate that is ongoing on several social media platforms, Mammootty, who delivered back-to-back successful films and the 'Kantara' star Rishab Shetty might likely vie for taking home the 'Best Actor' award. While the reach and applause for Rishab Shetty's 'Kantara' is not mentioned, Mammootty just killed it like usual in films like 'Nanpakal Nerathu Mayakkam' and 'Rorschach.'

Fans of the cinema are in general cheering for the nominations and are excited but it is to be seen who will win for their outstanding performance. The nominations and the technicalities of the latest edition of the National Film Awards are not yet announced but Mammootty has already won a Filmfare Award recently in the 'Best Actor' category for Lijo Jose Pellissery's 'Nanpakal Nerathu Mayakkam,' which has a unique storyline. The social media studies are in favour of Mammootty and are supporting him for his versatile and surprising performances at this age. The number of movies Mammootty had acted in the year are also an advantage as every release was successful.
