Megastar Mammootty has been awarded an honorary doctorate by Mahatma Gandhi University, Kottayam. This is the third honorary doctorate for the legendary Malayalam actor, recognizing his outstanding contributions to Indian cinema over three decades.

The prestigious ceremony took place in Kottayam, where Mammootty received the honor from the university. In his speech, he shared an emotional moment about his late father’s dream - his father had always wanted him to become a doctor. Although he could not fulfill that wish then, receiving honorary doctorates has been a special acknowledgment.

Mohanlal and many other celebrities, friends, and fans have been congratulating Mammootty on this achievement. Social media is flooded with praise for the veteran actor who continues to entertain audiences for the past 45 years.

“Even though I am not treating patients, for the past 45 years I have been treating you through cinema,” Mammootty said in his acceptance speech, promising to continue entertaining his fans until his last breath.
