Dulquer Salmaan often posts about his dad, the South star Mammootty. While Dulquer never misses a chance to wish his father on special occasions, his latest post comes as quite a surprise. Mammootty, on Saturday, set the Internet on fire by sharing a black and white photo of himself. We were yet to recover from the stunning picture when Dulquer, too, dropped the same snap on his Instagram account. Mammootty, who is 69-year-old, looks at the peak of fitness and gives a stellar pose in a T-shirt and trousers. Dulquer couldn't keep himself from spilling his excitement over Mammotty's pic and wrote in the caption, "Sovereign." He also added a crown emoji.
Several artists from the Malayalam film industry commented on the post. Actor-Director Prithviraj Sukumaran wrote, "How in the world does he do this?" Several actors left fire emojis. Mammooty fans were unstoppable in the comments. Bollywood actor Sanjay Kapoor also commented on the photo, "Wow" with a raised hands emoji.
Here's Mammootty's original post on Instagram. The picture received much love from friends and fans alike. Here it is:
