The epic drama Mamangam featuring Mammootty, Unnimukundan, Achuthan, Sidhique, Manikkuttan, Manikandan Achary, Tarun Arora, Prachi Tehlan, Kaniha, Anu Sithara, Iniya and others in prominent roles had released recently.
While the project was announced, reports were doing good rounds that the young actor Neeraj Madhav will be seen in an extended cameo in the film. He had taken to his social media and shared several videos of him in which he can seen undergoing different training sessions for the movie and making it to the final cut of the movie.
These posts had piqued the fans’ interest but only to find that the actor’s portions were missing from the film which had recently hit the big screens. The actor took to his photo-sharing app and revealed the reason as to why he was absent from the movie.
In his emotional post, he wrote, “To all those who’ve been asking about my absence in Mamangam movie, here’s my explanation. As you all might know I was playing a cameo in it, and I had shot for the movie in last April for about a week. The cameo, being a significant one, I had actually put some effort into it by learning Kalaripayatu & other fighting techniques for over a month. Anyways things took a different turn and a lot of modifications happened in terms of the script, direction, stunt team, cast and the crew of the movie and i was told that my fight sequence does not fit into the current narrative and hence it was removed from the final cut. It’s a little disheartening, but I have no complaints whatsoever and hope it would’ve been a well thought decision and for the greater good of the movie. Also, I was told my deleted scenes wil be uploaded in YouTube, so you all get to see it eventually. Wishing only luck to the entire cast and crew of Mamangam and guess I’ll have to wait even longer to work together with our beloved Mammukka!”
