it is an hour of irony where we simply can not smile at past achievements, we have to worry about the future too...
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:15 IST)
bulusu: why are you worried today? Don't worry. Be happy.
Ravikc (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:15 IST)
Mammotty, did you have to learn payyattu for "oru vadakkan veera gathat"?
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:16 IST)
Raviku: everything in life is a "payattu"
Sandeep (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:14 IST)
When are you coming to New Zealand?
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:18 IST)
Sandeep: Next cricket test as a player.
kalyan (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:17 IST)
Folks, we are being taken for a ride. I don't think the real Mammootty is here. Did you notice that the impersonator is not answering a single film based question!!
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:19 IST)
kalyan: I don't like 'doubting kalyans'.
kalyan (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:19 IST)
Mammootyji, how do you think Indian films compare with hollywood? Don't you think they are too long?
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:20 IST)
Kalyan: you can come out after the interval.
Gopinathan (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:20 IST)
Hey, rediff, where are my questions?
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:22 IST)
Gopinathan: what's your question?
bulusu (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:20 IST)
do you like a doubting thomas?
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:22 IST)
bulusu: Is it Mr.Thomas behind bulusu?
vidyadharan (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:22 IST)
For a lawyer in Cochin you have come a long way. Could you comment on that (in some detail pls?)
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:24 IST)
vidydharan: Yes, it is more than 700 kms.(Cochin to Madras)
sajan (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:24 IST)
Mammotty, Do you support the Kerala High Court's ruling on banning Bandh?
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:26 IST)
Sajan: Are you not in the habit of reading news papers?
bulusu (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:24 IST)
Mammottyji, when are you visiting Portland? You can come to my home anytime..
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:26 IST)
bulusu: Is it a "kuloos"
vidyadharan (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:25 IST)
Mr. Mammotty, you seem to have the superior, complacent attitude people find most irritating about Malayalis. Or can't we give others the decency of a suitable response?
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:28 IST)
vidyadhran: Above all, we are Malayaleeees.
Kareem (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:27 IST)
Is this your first-time experience on Internet?
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:29 IST)
Kareem: I am one of the first hundreds to have an internet connection in Chennai.
Gopinathan (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:29 IST)
Do you agree that we have not made any outstanding film based on our unique freedom struggle? If you do, what can we attribute it to? My second question on Ambedkar stands withdrawn! (an un-Mammootty-like act!)
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:31 IST)
Gopinathan: We are still struggling to make a film.
RaviKc (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:31 IST)
Mammotty, it is war now! I have unsheathed my urmi. Are you ready? Btw, impressive dialog delivery in that movie!
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:32 IST)
Ravik: You are tooo smart
Bino Jos (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:45 IST)
Mammotty, Would you have entered cinema if Jayan was alive? Your thoughts? You can decide not to answer as well :-)
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:47 IST)
Binos jos: No, never. Thank you for reminding me of that.
Gopinathan (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:47 IST)
Sir, i sincerely hope you get a faster net connection next time around!
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:47 IST)
Gopinathan: Thank you.
RaviKc (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:47 IST)
Mammotty, what are the plans for Onam? Any big feasts coming up?
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:49 IST)
Ravi kc: Just wait till Onam.
BULUSU (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:46 IST)
Ra-V-K Wild fans or Mild fans??
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:50 IST)
bulusu: just fans.
revathi (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:48 IST)
Mr. Mammotty, lets have some serious chat, how was it working with Lohitadas, since Bhootakkannadi was his first directorial venture? Some of the reviews criticised your dress code. What do you think about it?
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:52 IST)
revathi: Schizophreniacs are always dress conscious and neat. If you can understand that, it is okay. Or else, forget about it.
kalyan (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:51 IST)
Mr M, why are you avoiding Hindi films? Do you want to remain confined to the south?
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:53 IST)
kalyan: they are only avoiding me.
Bino Jos (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:50 IST)
Thank you too. Your acting some times resembles Al Pacino. Any influence?
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:55 IST)
Binos Jo: Not Jayan? I am disappointed.
john (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:54 IST)
Mr Mammotty (I hope you don't mind me calling you, that Mr Kutty). I am the film critic for the Spectator, UK. I expected some indepth material from this, which I expected to be an impromptu interview with what I have been told is one of the finest stars of India's south. Must say, am a little disappointed...
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 0:56 IST)
Mr. John, I am a kutty still.
Mammotty (Fri Aug 15 1997 1:0 IST)
