Actor-director Prithviraj Sukumaran, who’s currently promoting his upcoming film L2 Empuraan, recently gave an interview to Bollywood Hungama. In the course of the conversation, he spoke in regards to the film’s lead actor, Mohanlal, and shared worthwhile lessons he learned from Malayalam cinema’s beloved Lalettan. Prithviraj revealed that an important lesson he learned from Mohanlal was the way to interact with directors as an actor working under them. He explained, ‘At any time when I feel irritated on a set, my constant reminder is to reflect on how Mohanlal Sir handled such moments.’ In keeping with Prithviraj, that is the perfect technique to approach such situations.
Prithviraj credits this admirable trait of Mohanlal not solely to the veteran actor’s extensive experience, though he acknowledges that have plays a big role in shaping such skills. In keeping with Prithviraj, Mohanlal’s unique personality, what he describes as having a ‘monk-like quality,’ is equally instrumental. This essentially highlights Mohanlal’s stoic and composed nature, a characteristic that Prithviraj seems to deeply admire. It is obvious that Prithviraj holds immense respect and admiration for the actor also known as ‘The Complete Actor.’ Perhaps this deep regard is certainly one of the the reason why all of Prithviraj’s directorial ventures so far have featured Mohanlal within the lead role.
L2: Empuraan is about to release on March 27, 2025. The film, directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran and written by actor-director Murali Gopy, is the highly anticipated sequel to the 2019 blockbuster Lucifer. The story delves into the backstory of Lucifer’s enigmatic protagonist, promising a deeper exploration of the character’s origins and motivations.
