Mammootty’s website gets more interactive

KOCHI - Malayalam superstar Mammootty’s website is set to get a new look, have more interactive features and would include a blood bank service too.

The veteran actor said it could now be called a portal and not just a website as www.mammootty.com is more exhaustive than before.

“The highlight of the re-launched site is that it would be more interactive. Besides, it would offer a slew of community services that include a blood bank where anyone wanting blood can log on to the site. Through this one can find out the person in his or her locality who would be willing to provide blood. This blood bank will be operated with the help of my fans’ association,” Mammootty told IANS.

The National Award winning actor will officially re-launch the website here Sunday evening.

The new portal will have an elaborate interactive forum for his fans apart from details about the star and his upcoming projects. But won’t this give people a platform to write negative views as well?

“See, freedom of expression need not be curbed… and let anyone write what they want. I am sure only when the freedom of expression is there, I can do introspection. So let people write and express themselves,” Mammootty said.

The re-launch of the website comes just ahead of his new film’s release. “Pattanathil Bhootham”, a much-awaited entertainer, releases later this week.

“I am certainly happy with the film but then it is the audience who have to do the rest. My hands are full with two more (movies) in the final stages of production and ‘Pazhazzi Raja’, a mega film, is also slated for release during Ramadan,” said Mammootty, who has worked in over 300 films.

The actor recently turned producer and distributor too with the launch of his production company called Play House last month.
