Megastar Mammootty is coming as the chief guest at the State School Art Festival in Kollam. When Minister Sivankutty asked him to make a sculpture of one of his characters to present to Mammootty who is coming as the chief guest at the closing ceremony of the State School Art Festival, he hesitated at first but then took it boldly. But when Mammootty played Kadakkal Chandran’s facial expressions in the immortalized number one, he thought nothing of it. In a single day, Katakkal recreated the figure of Chandran in the metal glass.
On the other hand, Mammootty, who leaves the audience with the character he played without feeling like it was him after the movie, was also accepted as Unni Kan for his magic. The Mammootty sculpture made by Unni Kanai, a native of Payyannur Korom, has been completed till the final touches. In Thiruvananthapuram, Sree Narayana Guru, AKG, CV Ramanpilla, and Garuda sculpture at Manjualalthara have been made by Unni Kanai. Unni Kanai, who is also a member of the Lalitha Kala Academy, has attracted the connoisseurs of Kerala even before.
