Mohanlal appreciates Omar Lulu for the rendition of popular Mappila song Mahiyil Maha

Director Omar Lulu had recently come up with a music video titled ‘Jaana Mere Jaana’. It is a rendition of the popular Mappila song ‘Mahiyil Maha’ by Peer Mohammed. Jubair Muhammed has rehashed the song with additional Hindi lyrics by Abhishek Talented. Earlier, Omar had reworked another Mappila song, ‘Manikya Malaraya Poovi’ for his film, ‘Oru Adaar Love’.

Recently, Mohanlal had called Omar and told him that he loved the new version. In a brief Facebook post, the director himself has shared his joy in getting a call from the superstar. Apparently, Mohanlal is a big fan of the original Mappila songs. So he found the new versions of these songs interesting and congratulated the team behind them.

Interestingly, both ‘Manikya Malaraya Poovi’ and ‘Jaana Mere Jaana’ are sung by Vineeth Sreenivasan. The latter song featuring Dubai-based social media influencers Ajmal Khan and Jumana Khan has got over 3.5 million views in YouTube within just two weeks of its release.
