All these Records are OUTDATED...!! and good for nothing...for no one.
ReplyDeleteAll of his petty records have already been broken by the MASSIVE SUPREME STAR OF INDIAN CINEMA from time since his arrival to the cinema world !!
An actor who is a 1000 times more famous in all aspects than your Mammootty..whose known as "THE DEMI GOD"---whom the whole world lovingly calls as LALETTAN..Yes...!! THE LEGENDARY ***M.O.H.A.N.L.A.L***...well he has broken a 1000 times deadlier records than Mammootty's...The records which can never be broken Mammootty nor his future generation.
No just Mammootty...but no other actor/actress other than LALETTAN...!!
Mammootty is too small an insect to never ever reach even upto the foot of THE PRIME "MOHANLAL*
mohanlal is an entertainer..he is a good dancer when u compare with mammooty ....if the mohanlal dance with junior ntr...mohanlal is bulshit....i agree that mammooty has limitations.....mohanlal is not a classical actor......mohanlal can't make a hit outside kerala......mamooty has an ablity to go through a charector...still i belive that mohanlal cannot do powerful charectors like oru vadakkan veera gadha. new delhi vidheyan cbi sooryamanasom ambedkar dani pothenmada etc.....and mohanlal dont have body structure and not hansome like oru ikka... .....

ReplyDeleteMOHANLAL is of course an entertainer and there's no doubt in it.
ReplyDeleteYou say that if Mohanlal dance with Junior NTR it would have been bullshit,hope you might have seen Mohanlal locking horns with Ilayathalapathy Vijay in JILLA wherein the mass dance of Mohanlal amidst traditional ambience was the most celebrated tamil video song in 2014 and so Mohanlal dance was well enjoyed by tamil fans the same way as how Keralites love Vijay's dance.One must remember that MOHANLAL is a classical performer as he had learnt classical dance in his early age,the result of which you can see in the EPIC BLOCKBUSTER Movie KAMALADALAM.
MOHANLAL is definitely a classical actor and there's no doubt in it. MOHANLAL can't make a hit outside kerala may be thats the reason why his movie COMPANY won him the IIFA awards for Best Supporting Actor in 2002 while MAMMOOTTY having done many Hindi movies didn't even receive an applause at all till date.
You say that MAMMOOTTY has the ability to go thorugh the character while let me remind you that MOHANLAL lives within a character.He doesn't nees to go through a character.He becomes the character himself.Its his utmost versatility and flexibility in acting which has made him receive the golden title of "THE COMPLETE ACTOR OF INDIA CINEMA" from Indians worldwide.
When it comes to doing powerful characters MOHANLAL is the only choice. Mammootty indeed might have done characters like Vadakkan Veera Gatha,Pazhassi Raja,Pothenmada,Oru CBI,New Delhi,Vidheyan,Ambedkar,Pothenmada but these are not powerful at all..These are all his classic roles.But the irony is all of these movies can be played by any other actor since all the characters are STEREOTYPE meaning one can see Mammmootty performing like a machine which works on a particular manner only and nothing new.All the Mammootty characters are of the same manner without any versatility at all. MAMMOOTTY performance is more or less like choregraphed or better say stereo type without having the capability to live inside the character.But MOHANLAL is a born actor meaning including all those movies mentioned above for Mammootty + world class performance movies like VANAPRASTHAM,DASHARATHAM,KAMALADALAM,BHARATHAM,KIREEDAM,
DEVASURAM,THANMATHRA,PRANAYAM,SPIRIT,DRISHYAM,OPPAM,PULIMURUGAN etc. One can easily see that MOHANLAL's acting is in a rhythmic pattern.Each and every part of his body is so flexible that he can transform into any character at any time he wants and so his delivery would also be thunderous as is now clear from his unbreakable box-office records wherein he's creating the records and breaking his own previous records and setting new one.
MAMMOOTTY is indeed much glamorous than MOHANLAL. I do accept it.But its his plastic surgery which he did long ago.If you have doubt check out his neck skin.Its so pathetic to see it like a smashed plastic bag or a smashed piece of paper.
No matter whatever comparisons made
"MOHANLAL Is Always A Level Much Higher Than MAMMOOTTY".
