Maqbool went blank when Mammotty walked into the sets

Mammootty's nephew

Maqbool Salman

is on cloud nine for being able to act alongside his 'Muthaappa'. He recently divulged in an interview that he went blank when Mammootty walked into the sets. 'I was cool the first two days and everything was going well. On The third day, I had to act a crucial scene and muthaappa walked in. I went blank. I got anxious; usually Nithin would be at the monitor, now there was muthaappa also. I didn't want to get anything wrong when he was there. That scene had a scope for performance. Eventually, his inputs helped me a great deal.'

Seeing his bewilderment, his uncle, Mamootty, himself came forward to rescue Maqbool. "He advised me telling that I am doing fine, and just to keep him out and I'll do fine,' says Maqbool.
