The Magical 'Mohanlal' Moments.

The Magical 'Mohanlal' Moments!!!

When someone decided to make a list of '50+ things only a Proud Mallu will understand' that went viral, the first in the list was a photo of Mohanlal with the caption - 'This man is part of your daily life. Literally'. That says it all. Even after a series of uninspiring movies , how his one brilliant movie broke all existing boxoffice records on just its 30th day and how it still continues to run in major centres past 150 days shows how Keralites have always loved this man. Here's a look back at some of the magical acting moments - my most favorite ones - from a career that has entertained , enlightened and amazed us for last 36 years.

SANMANASSULLAVARKU SAMADHANAM ( "നീ ഇത്രയും ഭയങ്കരനായ വിവരം ഞാൻ അറിഞ്ഞില്ല." ) and KILUKKAM ("വട്ടാണല്ലേ")... The one-liners that stole the show from the co-actors.

Its a gift, an amazing one, to allow your co-actor to shine in the screen for a good amount of time and then just come at the end and win equal applause or even steal the show with only a single line or a word. I cannot help but club these scenes of Sanmanasullavarku samadhanam and Kilukkam because they are so much similar. In one, Revathi had given a very detailed account of what she had in the hotel and in the other, Sreenivasan had boasted in length about his daring stories as police officer. But at the end of it , this man just comes in, tells his one-liner with an innocent expression and a tone that just about overshadows what the others had done till then.
