Biju Menon is now one of the most popular actors in Malayalam cinema and now he had his own market here as a star as well. His last year film name Vellimoonga, directed by Jibu Jacob was a blockbuster success. He had solo releases and maulti-star releases in last two years and most of them were super successes. His association with Kunchacko Boban is also very much popular and their pair is a success pair here as well. This year he had successes like Madhura Naranga, Anarkkali etc and his performance in Salt Mango Tree is also well appreciated.
Biju Menon in a recent interview said that even though no he is developing a market of his own, he never want to be in the league of Mammootty and Mohanlal as he never even dreamt about that as well. He said that he always look up to them as they are his super stars. But for him Bharath Gopi was the one and only Megastar of Malayalam cinema as his acting skill was just superb. He is a big fan of the acting of late Thilakan as well.
He said that the success of Vellimoonga is a turning point in his career which gave a good reach among the audience here. He says that he have to thank his director for choosing as the male lea in it and also to the co-actors who done a great job. He said that there was difficulty in finding a heroine for him in the film as he is not a star. But Nikki Galrani did a great job as his pair. According to Biju Menon, the best actress he ever saw in Malayalam was Urvashi and the performance she gave along with Mohanlal in Sphadikam speaks volumes about her talent.
Biju Menon also clarified the controversy regarding the issue in which he allegedly avoided Dr. Biju when he came to him with the script of Perariyathavar. Biju Menon said that he does not know that Dr. Biju had come to meet him with a script and he was very busy at that time with climax shoot of the film which he was doing at that time.
