Mohanlal is my favourite actor and I admire Aamir Khan: Maheshinte Prathikaram fame Lijomol Jose

Lijomol Jose has caught the attention of the Malayali audience with just two movies. In Dileesh Pothen’s Maheshinte Prathikaram she played Artist Baby’s daughter Sonia. Her realistic performance in a de-glam look won her a lot of appreciation. She was later roped in to play one of the female leads in Nadirshah’s Kattappanayile Rithwik Roshan. Lijomol Jose has already signed for some exciting projects including a Mammootty starrer.

In a recent interview, the actress was asked about her favourite actors. Lijomol instantly replied that Mohanlal is her favourite actor as she feels that he can play any role effortlessly well. She was quick to add about her admiration for Aamir Khan. Among actresses, she named Parvathy Menon as her current favourite.

Lijomol will be next seen in Honey Bee 2.5 opposite Aksar Ali, Asif Ali’s brother. The movie, directed by Shyju Anthikad, is an one of a kind attempt in Mollywood. It is a realistic take on the events happening within a cinema set. The movie was shot in the sets of Lal Jr’s Honey Bee 2: Celebrations.

Lijomol Jose is also playing a pivotal role in renowned cinematographer Shamdat Sainudeen’s directorial debut Streetlights. The movie, starring Megastar Mammootty in the lead is touted to be a crime thriller.

Mammootty himself is producing this movie under his home production banner Playhouse Pictures. Streetlights doesn’t have a heroine as such, as it is a tale of many characters. Along with Lijomol Jose many other actors including Joy Mathew, Soubin Shahir, Indrans, Sudhi Koppa, Harish Kanaran and Dharmajan Bolgatty will be seen in pivotal characters.
