Very sad news. May her soul attain Sadgati. It's touching to see fans gathering to share the grief. In our culture, a mother is considered the first guru. Her role in his life, as mentioned by the Speaker, must have been immense.
While the outpouring of support is beautiful, I do wish the media and some fans would give the family more privacy during such a personal moment of loss. Grief should be respected, not turned into a public spectacle.
Om Shanti. The sight of Mammootty sir there speaks volumes. These legends have given us so much joy; the least we can do is offer our silent prayers for his family's strength. Deepest condolences.
This is so sad. As an admirer of Mohanlal's work from overseas, my heart goes out to him. Losing a parent is universal pain. The tribute from the Assembly Speaker was very moving. May she rest in peace.
A great pillar of strength has fallen. We often forget the families behind our stars. Shanthakumari Amma's journey, supporting her son to become a legend, is itself a great story. Prayers for the family. 🙏
