Malayalam superstar Mammootty turned 74 on Sunday. The actor, who recently suffered a health scare and is now recovering, took to social media to thank his fans and God. He also spoke to fans who lined up outside his Kochi home to wish him a happy birthday, thanking them for making his day special.

As soon as he says hello, the waiting fans wish him a happy birthday and cheer for him. He thanks them for the love and seems happy about the wishes.
Mammootty was last seen in Dominic and the Ladies' Purse and Bazooka this year. He took a break from films after falling sick due to an unspecified illness. Recently, his team confirmed that the actor had recovered. Posting on behalf of him, his manager wrote on Instagram in August, “I stand in front of you with my eyes filled with joy. And for those who prayed, to those who stood with me, to those who comforted me, saying that nothing will happen, with unending love, dear ones... Thank you!”
The actor will soon star in Patriot with Mohanlal and Fahadh Faasil as his co-stars. His next film, Kalamkaval, in which he is rumoured to play a character based on the serial killer Cyanide Mohan, is expected to be released in theatres on 9 October.
