Want to talk to Mohanlal : Master Chethan Jayalal

Master Chethan Jayalal has made a mark in the industry with his performances in movies like 5 Sundarikal, ABCD and Charlie. But it was his latest movie Guppy, that made him a favourite among the audience and critics.

This young actor gave an astonishing performance in Guppy directed by John Paul George. The movie also starred Tovino Thomas as the other main lead. Chethan’s performance in the movie was highly appreciated.

Though the movie was critically acclaimed, it did not enjoy a good theatrical run. Only after the DVDs released, Guppy got its due recognition.

Master Chethan in an interview has said that he would love to talk to Mohanlal. He has acted in movies like Lailaa O Lailaa and more recently in the blockbuster Oppam. But he could not talk to the superstar on both the occasions.

He wanted to talk to Mohanlal in the sets of Oppam, but the superstar was busy reading script. He was afraid of disturbing him and could not talk to him. But Master Chethan has said that he will definitely talk to Mohanlal when he meets him next time.

In such a short period, the young boy has acted with stars like Mohanlal, Nivin Pauly, Dulquer Salmaan and Tovino Thomas. He said, he has not yet got a chance to act with Mammootty.

Master Chethan is now studying in 10th standard. He hails from Edavanakkad in Ernakulam. He says that, many of his neighbors are still not aware about him acting in cinema. People started recognizing him only after the release of Guppy.

We had earlier reported about the condition of actor Munshi Venu who is undergoing treatment for kidney failure.

Actors Mammootty and Rajeev Pillai came forward to lend financial support to the actor who is battling for life without enough money for treatment.

Munshi Venu who has acted in more than 75 movies in Mollywood is currently admitted in the palliative care unit in Muringoor, Chalakkudy. He is undergoing treatment in St James Hospital in Angamaly for kidney related ailments.

The actor has been undergoing dialysis after being diagnosed with kidney failure six months back. The doctors have advised him for kidney transplantation.

Cost for each dialysis and the medicines cost around 4000 rupees and the poor actor could not afford it. He had to undergo dialysis for 12 times in a month.

Munshi Venu is homeless and was staying in a lodge in Chalakkudy for the past 10 years. He could not afford for both the rent and the treatment, so he had to move of the lodge recently.

The actor has not received any financial help from the Association of Malayalam Movie Artists (AMMA) as he is no more a member of the association. He is not a member because he could not afford to pay the huge membership fees.

At a time when Malayalam cinema is basking in the glory of 50 and 100 crores, it is very sad that only two actors have lent financial support to a fellow actor who is battling for life.
