Actor Unni Mukundan currently basking in the success of Marco, has become the talk of the town. From a self-made star with no godfather to one of Malayalam cinema’s most celebrated actors, Unni’s journey is being widely celebrated. His latest movie, Markoo, has not only won hearts in Kerala but is also gaining massive traction in the Hindi belt, with reports suggesting over 140 additional screenings across North India.
Amid this success, an old interview of Unni has resurfaced, where he candidly admitted to having a crush on South Indian star Anushka Shetty. Speaking about their time working together for nearly ten months on the sets of Bhaagamathie, Unni revealed how he was captivated by Anushka’s personality.“If I were someone who could stand shoulder-to-shoulder with her stardom, I would have proposed to her,” Unni said with a smile. He praised Anushka’s grounded nature, despite her superstar status, and highlighted how she treated everyone equally, from spot boys to directors.
“Bhaagamathie felt like just another commercial film to me at first. But working with Anushka changed my perspective. At that time, she was at the peak of her career, post-Baahubali. Yet, she was incredibly humble and down-to-earth. Her behavior and attitude drew me toward her. Age was never an issue for me; it was her remarkable personality,” he explained.
Fans, thrilled by Unni’s confession, have now flooded social media with humorous comments, urging him to propose to Anushka.
• “Go for it, Unni chetta! Age is just a number.”
• “Show her Markoo and confess your feelings!”
• “You’re 37, the most eligible bachelor in Mollywood. It’s time to make your move.”
As fans rally behind this potential proposal, they eagerly await to see if Anushka will respond to this heartfelt revelation. With Unni being a favorite among female fans and a rising pan-Indian star, only time will tell how this amusing and hopeful episode unfolds.
