Her latest flick Lanka may have flopped at the box office. But newcomer Mamta Mohandas has well and truly arrived on the Malayalam film scene. There is no mistaking it.
And not many newcomers get to act with superstars right at the beginning of their career. Mamta has been lucky that way.
Her debut film in Malayalam was director Hariharan's Mayookham . The film did not click. But Mamta attracted attention for her sensitive portrayal.
Then came ‘Bus Conductor’ starring megastar Mammootty . In the film, Mamta played Mammootty's sister. Again, she got rave reviews for her role.
Now it was her turn to share reel space with yet another superstar: Suresh Gopi . The film was ‘Lanka’ in which Mamta plays a glamorous girl who stalks the hero. As a matter of fact, Mamta gets more space in the film than even Suresh.
She is figuring in two more superstar films. One is Rajasenan-directed ‘Madhuchandralekha’ in which Jayaram is her hero.
The icing on the cake is a film with the other megastar of Mollywood Mohanlal . The movie is named ‘Kirtichakra’, which is a chronicle of a soldier's life against the backdrop of the Kargil conflict.
