Mohanlal is an inspiration says Anushka

Mohanlal, with his makeovers, continues to astonish and inspire not just his fans, but big stars belonging to other film industries also. With the amazing transformation he has undergone for his upcoming project 'Odiyan', the versatile actor has created huge brand value for Malayalam cinema.

After leaving even Rajinikanth astounded with his new look, Mohanlal has added south Indian super actress Anushka Shetty to his list of admirers.

In her latest film 'Bhaagamathie', Anushka appears in size zero. Replying to a question in an interview given to a Telugu channel regarding the efforts she is putting in to achieve the look, Anushka said many top stars had inspired her.

"Aamir Khan in Hindi, Prabhas in Telugu, Vikram in Tamil and Mohanlal in Malayalam are those I have drawn inspiration from" she said.

Anushka had special praise for Mohanlal, saying the 56-year-old was taking risks which only a young actor would attempt. "I'm amazed as well as inspired by his efforts" the actress said.

When the interviewer commented that she had not seen Mohanlal's makeover, Anushka said that she shouldn't miss it.
