Mammootty had taken time off his busy Malayalam film shoot in Kerala to attend the “most prestigious film awards in the country”.
After getting the coveted 57th Idea Filmfare Awards 2009 (South) in the Best Actor category for his brilliant dual role in Paleri Manikyam the Malayalam megastar said, “I’m on top of the world, I have entered double figures. Yes it’s my 10th Filmfare award. It feels fantastic to hold the Black Lady.”
The debonair actor, wearing a blue cheque shirt and black pant, was looking as dashing as ever and in fact, was the cynosure of all eyes. “Last year, I got immense satisfaction as an actor doing three very good films — Pazhassi Raja, Paleri Manikam and Loud Speaker. I would take this award as recognition of my work in all the three films,” said a smiling Mammootty.
Mammootty said he is always open to young directors with new ideas and will go the extra mile to do “something different, if the script is exciting.” Concluded Mammootty, “As a star and an actor, I have to take a middle path by doing mass commercial films but at the same time, do films that I feel are different and interesting.
I would love to get more black ladies to adorn my showcase at home.” The big question being asked is whether Mammootty will beat the record set by Kamal Haasan in the number of Filmfare awards.
