They did not allow me to say that he was superior to those ten actors; Devan responds to controversy

Actor Devan had mentioned in an interview that Mammootty is one of the top ten actors in the world. Soon after the interview, this stoked a controversy. It was also alleged that Mammootty and Mohanlal had tried to supress him. Now in an interview with Kaumudy TV, the actor has responded to the controversy surrounding him.

‘Mammootty is one of the ten best actors in world cinema. Then asked about Mohanlal. The level of Mohanlal is different. They stopped there. What I meant is that if we take Rajinikanth, can we compare him to anyone, his popularity and can we compare director Rajamouli to anyone. Such is the case with actor Mohanlal. His gestures, flexibility and the ability to bring any character together are unmatched. The interviewer did not allow me to say it. He did not allow me to say that Mohanlal is above all these ten actors. It was an unnecessary controversy, Devan said.
