In a chat with Khalid Al Ameri for his YouTube channel, Mammootty said that he had dreamt of becoming an actor ever since he saw his first film as a child. “I wanted to become an actor when I was 7-8 years old. So that feeling, that passion started till I got into the film industry,” he shared. He said that he studied law, and had even begun practicing when he was re-bitten by the acting bug. It was after having embarked on a conventional career, and getting married in 1979 that he eventually entered the movies as a lead hero.
