Mammootty began his acting career in 1979 with Devalokam. However, the MT Vasudevan Nair directorial was never released. Thereafter, Vilkkanundu Swapnangal, written by MT Vasudevan Nair and directed by M Azad became the actor’s first major break.
Mammootty then went on to become one of the most popular actors in the Malayalam film industry and has since then worked in Telugu, Tamil, Hindi as well as English films. Many of his colleagues in the film fraternity took to social media to extend greetings for the actor.
Chief Minister of Kerala Pinarayi Vijayan greeted the actor by writing, “Dear Mammootty (@mammukka), wishing you the best on your birthday.”
