For a quarter century, Malayalam cinema has been ruled by two superstars — Mohanlal and Mammootty, unquestionably gifted and enigmatic in popular imagination. It’s been an eternal debate for the legion of fans to decide who the better actor is, but legendary actor Thilakan sealed it with his statement. “I have high regard for Mohanlal. He is a brilliant, natural, flexible actor. And Mammooty is a ‘made actor’.”

Mohanlal’s formidable career is a tale of an actor, intellectual in approach, and passionate in delivery, a student who honed his craft over the years by playing characters with little style and in a manner that mocks stereotypes. Tragedy, comedy and everything in between, his gifts as an actor made sure we felt for the character with each breath, laughed and cried along with him.

On the occasion of his birthday, we revisit some cinematic gems where we witnessed his effortlessness as an actor.
