Mohanlal married Suchitra in 1988, and they have two children - actor Pranav and Vismaya. Mohanlal's son, Pranav Mohanlal, made his debut as a child actor with a minor role in Onnaman (2002). Years later, he made his debut as a lead star in the film Aadhi.
Mohanlal's work front
The superstar had a great year at the box office. He started the year with the much-anticipated L2: Empuraan directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran. The film was a sequel to the 2019 film Lucifer. Despite the controversy around the film, Empuraan became the highest-grossing Malayalam film ever.
Mohanlal followed it up with Thudarum, a film that fans considered his comeback to the kind of rooted and feel-good roles that he is known for. The film also marked his reunion with actress Shobana. The duo has done over 50 films together.
Up next, he will be seen in the family drama Hridayapoorvam. Apart from that, the actor also has Vrusshabha in the pipeline.
