Kochi: Pranav Mohanlal, the son of Malayalam superstar Mohanlal, is known for his low-profile presence outside of films. Rarely seen at promotional events or functions, Pranav prefers to travel during his downtime, living a life that feels quite ordinary despite his lineage. His offline appearances often spark conversations, and he is notably inactive on social media.

Over the last few days, a video featuring Pranav Mohanlal at a family event has gone viral, gaining traction on social media. The clip creatively pairs a scene from Mohanlal’s iconic film "Devaasuram" with Pranav's presence. The dialogue “Vanno Ooru Thendi” (meaning "Oh! The vagabond has arrived!") sets the tone for the reel, showcasing Pranav waving at guests before stepping aside while Mohanlal looks on.

In the classic film, it is a dialogue that the protagonist portrayed by Mohanlal utters to the character played by Oduvil Unnikrishnan. 

The video, shared by the Instagram page @popcorniac, was posted three days ago and has already amassed over 1 lakh likes. Viewers have added humorous comments, such as “See you at the next Onam, Pranav,” and “I think Mohanlal is seeing his son after many days,” enhancing its comedic appeal.

However, many users speculated that Pranav would likely not see the video, reflecting on his tendency to focus on personal pursuits rather than engaging with film-related events. Industry insiders have noted that younger actors sometimes express envy over Pranav’s seemingly carefree lifestyle.

Pranav starred in this year’s blockbuster “Varshangalkku Shesham,” directed by Vineeth Sreenivasan, alongside Dhyan Sreenivasan. Yet, despite the film's success, he was not seen during its promotional events or celebrations.

Pranav Mohanlal remains an enigmatic figure in the industry, choosing a lifestyle that prioritises privacy over public appearances, much to the fascination and amusement of fans. (With inputs from Agencies)
