EXCLUSIVE: Tovino Thomas reflects on collaborating with Mohanlal, salutes Mammootty for his experimental roles

As a lifestyle expert with a keen eye for the arts and a deep respect for the craft, I must say that Tovino Thomas’ journey in the Malayalam film industry is nothing short of captivating. His admiration for legends like Mammootty and Mohanlal is not only heartwarming but also a testament to his understanding of the rich legacy these actors have left behind.


Tovino Thomas, set to debut his upcoming movie Ajayante Randam Moshanam (ARM), recently discussed his appreciation for esteemed actors such as Mammootty and Mohanlal in an interview with TopMob. In this special dialogue, he reminisced about their unwavering commitment to their profession and offered insights into his own collaborative journey with Mohanlal throughout the years.

Tovino spoke about the enduring fame of legendary actors and expressed, “At my birth, these stars were already established superstars and gifted performers. When I joined the film industry, nothing had altered, they remained the same revered icons today. For example, Mammuka has been accepting challenging experimental roles recently, such as those in Rorschach, Bramayugam, and Kaathal. Likewise, Lalettan, who I am collaborating with on Empuraan, the second installment of Lucifer, is an extraordinary actor. Although I haven’t acted alongside Mammuka, I have previously worked with Lalettan.”

Apart from his diverse acting roles, he also discussed his film collaborations with Mohanlal, notably in projects such as Lucifer. He commented, “Back in 2014, we had a few shared scenes in one movie (Koothara), and although I didn’t have any direct scenes with him in Lucifer, I’m excited for potential future interactions during the filming of Empuraan.”

2018 saw the actor express that Mohanlal’s professional dedication on film sets was awe-inspiring, as he put it, “Working alongside Lalettan is nothing short of inspiring. His commitment to discipline on set and respectful interactions with everyone are commendable. It’s astonishing to witness a superstar who has been in the industry since before my time still demonstrating such passion. Watching their devotion to their craft and profession underscores why they have earned iconic status as idolized superstars and exceptional actors.”

For those not familiar, Tovino Thomas is teaming up again with Mohanlal for the movie “L2: Empuraan” following their earlier project together in “Lucifer,” which hit theaters in 2019.

In addition to Tovino, this forthcoming crime thriller boasts the talents of Mohanlal, Prithviraj Sukumaran, and Manju Warrier, along with several other notable actors. We eagerly anticipate further information about this much-talked-about movie.
