Mohanlal or Mammootty? Dulquer Salmaan reveals his favorite!

Dulquer Salmaan is now a popular actor across South India thanks to the wide acceptance of some of his films like Banglore Days, OK Kanmani, Charlie, Kali and Kammattipadam.

In the recently held Behindwoods Gold Medals 2017, Dulquer won the award for Best Actor (Critics Choice) for the year 2016. He won the award for his performance in Rajeev Ravi’s Kammattipaadam. Tamil star Sivakarthikeyan presented the award to Dulquer Salmaan.

During the show, he was asked by one of the hosts to choose his favourite between the two legends of Malayalam cinema – Mohanlal and Mammootty. The actor, diplomatic as always, replied that he likes both of them but added that his father will always be his no.1 (obviously).

Apart from Dulquer, Nivin Pauly and Sai Pallavi represented Malayalam cinema in the function. The former won the award for best actor in a lead role for his performance in Jacobinte Swargarajyam and Action Hero Biju. Sai Pallavi was honoured with the best actress for her performance in Sameer Thahir’s Kali, which had her paired opposite Dulquer.

Dulquer’s next release will be Soubin Shahir’s debut directorial Parava, in which he has played a cameo role. Bejoy Nambiar’s Solo, a bilingual in Tamil and Malayalam, is another movie in the pipeline. Besides that he has also committed for two other Tamil films, both of them with debutant filmmakers.
