Sharing the photo, Mammootty wrote, "Big thanks to the person who did this. This is a screengrab from my first ever appearance on celluloid. Colour corrected from black and white. This brings back such vivid memories from another time. I had the rare privilege to be in the same film as Sathyan master. In fact I remember touching his feet once when he was asleep, resting between shots. #longtimeago #aboutaboy #whodreamedofcinema (sic)."
