People now a days categorized the stars in mollywood like New generation stars or old generation star or something like that. But when it comes to Mohanlal they all are in one stand and for them he is the All generation Super star. There is a reason as well for calling him so or saying he is the one and only one who deserves that title.
For many years we have been seeing the trend of imitating Mohanlal, Mohanlal characters, or uttering the popular dialogues said by the characters played by him, inserting the visuals of popular Mohanlal movies or referring his movie names in the so called new generation films. And have to say that all those get thunderous applause as well as the name Mohanlal or something related to him is enough to get the viewers going and made them go wild in the theaters. That was his star power and reach among the spectators here.
The trend still continuous as strong as ever in Mollywood. Let’s check some recent examples. Last year Lal Jose made a film named Vikramadithyan with Dulquer Salmaan in the lead. And in that film the scene which got maximum applause from the audience was when Dulquer said the popular Mohanlal dialogue from the film Irupatham Noottandu, “Narcotics is a dirty business”, and that too imitating the Mohanlal style. Then we saw Nivin Pauly imitating Mohanlal in two of his blockbuster films named Oru Vadakkan Selfi and Premam and that scenes also went great with the viewers.
Recently a film named Kohinoor released starring Asif Ali and in that film he imitating the Mohanlal style of the 1990’s from beginning to the end of the movie. Even the introduction of his character is made in the Mohanlal’s character Sagar Alias Jacky from Irupatham Noottand. And yesterday the trailer of the film Amar Akbar Anthony had release and in that trailer Young star Prithviraj also seen in a shot imitating the style of Mohanlal. All these scenes went viral in social Media applications as well.
Thus Mohnalal had really become the best tool to connect directly with the audience for film makers here now. We have seen in many telugu and tamil movies also that when mentioning about Kerala the name Mohanlal pops out first. Mohanlal is always a trend and he is the one who was and who is the real brand ambassador of Malayalees in all sense.
