What happened to Mammootty's health?
Sreeraman told Manorama News that Mammootty had called him to share an important update about his health, but he couldn't attend the call as he was in an autorickshaw at that time, and didn’t hear the ring. When Sreeraman called him back, the actor told him about his health, saying that he had "passed the last and crucial test." "There was no excitement in his voice, but I know he was relieved,” added Sreeraman.
Sreeraman also said revealed that Mammootty shared the details about how he had "lost his appetite for food and had some taste issues" during the initial stages of his treatment, but his ill health "did not bother him much."
He is glad that things are getting better now.
He also said that the 73-year-old star will be back to cinema soon, but it would depend on the doctors’ advice.
On the work front, Mammootty will be seen in Mahesh Narayanan’s film, Patriot, which also stars Mohanlal, Nayanthara, Fahadh Faasil, and Kunchacko Boban. Narayanan recently confirmed that 60% of the film is complete.
Earlier, there were reports of Mammootty being diagnosed with cancer. However, his PR team refuted it and called it "fake news".
