He continued, “For a long time, wherever I went, everyone’s enquiry was only about Ichakka (Mammootty’s nickname). During my travels for serial shoots, at railway stations, bus stands, on the streets, and at shooting locations, wherever I went, people would come and ask lovingly, ‘Mammukka is okay, right?’ The expression on their faces upon hearing my ‘yes’ showed the depth of their love for him. The whole world is praying for one person?! Yes. All the world I saw had been in prayer, wishing for Ichakka’s health to be restored. Though the situation wasn’t extremely grave, a lump remained in my heart. I prayed in every breath… along with crores and crores of people. Now that all the crises have been overcome, it is a relief like having swum across a sea.”

Ebrahimkutty concluded, “Thank you, to those who carried unconditional love for Ichakka; to those who prayed; to those who ardently wished for his return… And to every human being and God.”

On the work front, Mammootty has featured in two movies this year - Dominic and the Ladies' Purse and Bazooka. His next release is Kalamkaval - The Venom Beneath, co-starring Meera Jasmine, Vinayakan and others. The movie featuring Mammootty as a cop is directed by debutant Jithin K Jose.
