Malavika Mohanan on age gap with Mohanlal

A fan commented on Malavika’s post that Mohanlal was ‘desperate’ to play a role not fit for his age by playing her ‘love interest’. They wrote, “65 year old man playing the love interest of a 30 year old. What is with these veteran actors desperate to play roles that don’t fit their ages?” Mohanlal is 64 and Malavika is 31. She hit back, asking them who said she was romancing Mohanlal in the film, “who told you it’s a love interest? Stop judging people and a film with your half baked baseless assumptions.”

Announcing that she had wrapped up her first schedule of Hridayapoorvam, calling the experience ‘beautiful, warm, wholesome, heartwarming.’ She also wrote, “Learned so much from the stalwarts- Mohanlal sir & Sathyan Sir. Just watching them, having them guide me, seeing how they bring cinematic magic to life, and all of this they do with so much of dignity and respect and grace.” Malavika posted candid pictures taken during the film’s shoot at the ‘hills and tea estates’ of Thekkady in Kerala.
