No matter how famous film stars may be, they remain ordinary people at heart. Friendships, happiness, and family trips are just as important to them. In this context, director Alleppey Ashraf has shared a story about an unforgettable trip that Mohanlal and Priyadarshan, along with their families, took years ago.
"Years ago, Mohanlal and Priyadarshan traveled to Australia with their families. They were staying on the 34th floor of a hotel. While descending in the elevator, when they reached the 12th floor, Mohanlal’s daughter got off with a group of people. As soon as the child stepped off, the doors closed, and the lift descended. Seeing another lift open on the opposite side, the child got into that one. The next moments felt like a dramatic climax from one of Lal’s films.
Lal became completely panicked. Not knowing what to do, he started getting off at different floors, desperately searching for the child. Lissy (Priyadarshan's ex-wife) recalled that she had never seen Lal in such a state before. He was on the verge of losing control. He finally got his breath back when he found his daughter on the 30th floor. At that moment, everyone in their group breathed a sigh of relief," said Alleppey Ashraf.
