Pranav Mohanlal's life in Spain

In an interview with FTQ with Rekha Menon, Suchitra spoke about how her son is working on a farm in the European nation in exchange for food and shelter. Talking about Appu (Pranav's nickname)in Malayalam she said, "Appu is in Spain now working on a farm or something. There's no money involved, only accommodation and food. Sometimes, the work involves looking after horses or lambs. It's an experience. He shares stories whenever he's back from his travels."

Pranav has only done a handful of films and isn't always active in the industry, unlike his peers. Suchitra said that he is interested in acting but is very picky when it comes to his roles and films. "I like to listen to scripts, so I sit and listen. He does one film every two years. I ask him to do at least two films per year. But when I think about it, I realise he's trying to balance everything." She also stated that she has ‘no wish' for Pranav to act in Mohanlal's films because ‘people will compare them and judge them' for it."
