In the new still from Malaikottai Vaaliban which is now taking social media by storm, Mohanlal looks majestic as the mighty warrior from the pre-independence era. The legendary superstar is seen in his unique look from the movie, in a beige vintage-style jumper, and a maroon shawl. He completed his look with a top knot and thick beard, a heavy oxidized silver hasli necklace, and a statement bracelet.
From the new still from Malaikottai Vaaliban, it is evident that Mohanlal is set to play a never-seen-before avatar in the Lijo Jose Pellissery directorial. It is quite exciting to see the legendary superstar in a unique character and different get-up, after a series of underwhelming roles and film choices.
The diehard fans of the superstar and Malayalam cine-goers are eagerly waiting for him to reinvent himself as an actor, instead of settling for unimpressive formula entertainers. We wish Malaikottai Vaaliban would mark the beginning of a new exciting phase in the National Award winner’s illustrious career.
