“🌹I respectfully bow down to you 🌹

“Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya 🌹.”

Another person wrote: “Or else it is like that.. If someone dies, they will just say it like that. If you think about it, you should have given him some opportunities while he was alive.. Mammootty and Mohanlal are the most important in Malayalam cinema now..

“They were the era when he acted in most of the movies.. He loved acting.. If they thought about it, they should have given him good roles.. Aren't they people with their own banners.. Otherwise, what's the point of praising him after he dies.. So many actors and actresses have died leaving behind their desires. ..sad.”
