Unni Mukundan is the favorite actor of Malayalees. Unni Mukundan faced a big controversy for his association with Malikappuram movie. When Malikappuram movie came out, it was a big discussion that a generation will see his face as Ayyappan. I don't know how many movies I can make as God. That's why Unni Mukundan has said that Malikappuram is an important film for me. Even now, Unni Mukundan has to face questions related to this. Now, in an interview given to The New Indian Express Kerala, Unnimukundan answers the question related to his politics and film selection with a bang. Unni Mukundan tells the questioner what kind of question is this.
Many more Hindu religious roles are being played. The journalist asked Unnimukundan if he felt like he was being typecast. Unnimukundan asked back what are you asking. Where do questions like this come from 'Which movie, or from what point are you asking me such a question? It is a Hindu hero, but I don't take movies in a way that I can do this. I don't think so, people are scared. Why is that?,' At one time he felt that he would be limited to being an action hero, but that stopped completely. When I looked at the number of action movies recently, my name was not there. Unni Mukundan says in the interview that although he felt sad at first, his plan is not to confine himself to being an action hero.
