What’s The Whole Controversy?
Mohanlal visited Sabarimala temple on March 18, and a puja offering receipt with Mammootty’s birth name, Muhammed Kutty, went viral on social media. This hinted that L2 Empuraan actor performed a ritual for Bramayugam actor. There were rumours that Mammootty is diagnosed with Cancer, but the 73-year-old actor’s team called it a fake news.
O Abdullah, an influencer and the former editor of a newspaper, in an audio message shared on social media said that if Mammootty had asked Mohanlal to offer prayers on his behalf, the Turbo actor should apologize. He said, “According to Islamic beliefs, no one should offer anything to anyone except Allah.”
