Malayalam legend Mohanlal turned 65 on Wednesday, and while fans across the world showered him with love, the superstar had two special surprises of his own. Celebrating his birthday with family in Thailand, Mohanlal announced Mukharagam and a heartwarming health initiative for underprivileged children.
The first major announcement was Mukharagam, a nearly 1,000-page biography written by Balu Prakash and published by Mathrubhumi Books. Mohanlal revealed that the book will be released on December 25, 2025, to mark 47 years of his acting career. With a foreword by iconic writer M.T. Vasudevan Nair, the book promises to delve deep into the many layers of the actor's journey, from a shy debutant to a national treasure.
The second announcement touched hearts. Mohanlal shared a new collaborative initiative between his ViswaSanthi Foundation and Baby Memorial Hospital, aimed at providing affordable liver transplants to children from economically weaker sections. The project is designed to support families who often can’t afford such life-saving surgeries, proving once again that the actor's off-screen legacy is as impactful as his on-screen stardom.
Social media reaction
Fans flooded social media with heartfelt birthday wishes and admiration for Mohanlal. Many celebrated him not just as an iconic actor but as a deeply respected figure in every Malayalee's heart. His fans expressed excitement for the upcoming release of his biography Mukharagam, calling it a long-awaited tribute to his incredible journey.
The announcement about the liver transplant initiative also drew widespread praise. Social media users lauded the ViswaSanthi Foundation and Baby Memorial Hospital for taking a noble step towards helping underprivileged children access life-saving treatment. Many hoped the initiative would bring much-needed relief to families in need and applauded the superstar for using his platform to create meaningful change.
Mohanlal’s work
As he inches closer to 50 years in cinema, Mohanlal's legacy continues to grow. A five-time National Award winner, recipient of Padma Shri and Padma Bhushan, the actor shows no signs of slowing down. Fittingly, his birthday arrives at a time when two of his films, Empuraan, the most expensive Malayalam film ever made, and Thudarum, a nostalgic drama, are enjoying successful theatrical runs, reinforcing why Mohanlal remains a force in Indian cinema.
From blockbuster films to social impact, the veteran actor’s birthday reflected not just his cinematic legacy but also his deep-rooted commitment to giving back.
