Mammootty trended big time on social media recently after he shared two major throwback photos of himself. The first picture is from his "first ever appearance on celluloid." Sharing the photo, he wrote: "Big thanks to the person who did this. This is a screen grab from my first ever appearance on celluloid. Colour corrected from black and white. This brings back such vivid memories from another time. I had the rare privilege to be in the same film as Sathyan master. In fact, I remember touching his feet once when he was asleep, resting between shots."
The second photo is from the sets of his 1990 film Kottayam Kunjachan.
In terms of work, Mammootty, who is known for his work in Malayalam films, has also featured in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Hindi films. His filmography includes Mathilukal, Oru Vadakkan Veeragatha, Ponthan Mada, Vidheyan, Mayavi, Madhura Raja and Puthan Panam. Mammootty's last films were The Priest and One.
