Yes, of course, athan "fortunate"nen. I even remember Karumbuvil, very early film of his where he had prominent role. And then, "that man from karumbuvil", that "adivanggura aalu now got bigger role...scary bald man"...then to other Manivannan films, and finally in Kakkichattai he arrived. There was no question he was going to be big.
