Aishwarya Rai made her debut against Mohanlal in Iruvar (tamil)
Mohanlal and Priyadarshan used to be arch enemies during their time at college. Both supported different rival political wing.
Mohanlal and his friends produced their first movie in 1978 'Thiranottam' which was never released.
Mohanlal was a amateur wrestler. He was due to go for the National championship in Delhi when he was called for auditioning by Navodaya for the role of Narendran in Manjil Virinja Pookkal directed by Fazil. His friends had sent his photographs to Navodya productions that was looking for fresh actors. He decided to go for the audition and rest is history.
Mohanlal's personal Assistant and Producer Antony Perumbaavoor was a taxi driver in Eranakulam and used to take Mohanlal from his hotel to the location of 'Pattanapravesam'. This started a good friendship and by the end of shooting Mohanlal asked Antony if he wants to be his driver. Antony has since been with Mohanlal and now produces films under the banner Aasirvaad Productions. His first movie (Narasimham)was a megahit.
Most of his best school-college mates are with him in the film industry....Priyadarshan, M.G.Sreekumar, Raju and prodcuer Suresh Kumar.
Mohanlal's friends and family call him Lalu.
Mohanlal's main hobby is collecting antiques and artifacts. He has a great collection of paintings
Mohanlal has acted only in three tamil films even though his father in law was a famous tamil producer. He agreed to do Iruvar only because of Mani Ratnam's persuasion.
Mohanlal is the youngest actor to get national award for the Best Actor
It is a little known fact that Mohanlal won a Best Actor Award when in the sixth standard in school, an award usually won only by the people from tenth standard. Actor Maniyanpilla Raju directed that stage drama and was the first person to put make up on Mohanlal's face.
Mohanlal reached Trivandrum in a helicopter from Palakkad because of tight schedules to attend Kaumudi honouring director Priyadarshan. Mohanlal said he would have felt ashamed of himself if he couldnt make it to a function that was honouring his best friend and their friendship.
