Pranav Mohanlal, yeah, that’s Mohanlal’s kid—talk about big shoes to fill. He’s not just riding on his dad’s fame, though, because the dude actually has some serious chops. Back in 2003, he nabbed the Kerala State Film Award for Best Child Artist with his debut as the lead in Punarjani. Not a lot of folks can say they went from kid actor to singing and songwriting, but Pranav made that jump look easy. Thing is, he didn’t just stick to being in front of the camera. He hustled behind the scenes too, working as an assistant director for Jeethu Joseph on flicks like Papanasam and Life of Josutty in 2015. Guess he wanted to learn the ropes before diving back into the spotlight. And when he did, he went all in—his first proper adult lead was in Aadhi in 2018. Not only did he act, but he also tried his hand at playback singing and songwriting for the movie. “Gypsy Woman” was his debut track, and people actually dug it. Kind of wild, right? From child prodigy to low-key assistant, and then jumping back as a leading man with some musical flair thrown in. He’s carving his own space in the Malayalam film scene—trying not to just be known as Mohanlal’s son, but as Pranav, the actor, the singer, the whole package.
A total adrenaline junkie, this character’s got a bookshelf overflowing with everything from travel memoirs to edgy poetry collections, and probably a harness or two tangled up somewhere nearby. When they’re not hanging off a rock face or flipping through the air—yeah, they’ve got a background in gymnastics and skydiving, no big deal—they’re scribbling verses about life, love, and that weird feeling you get at 30,000 feet. The world’s basically their playground, and they collect stories the way some people collect magnets. You’ll find them plotting their next wild trip while nursing a cappuccino in some random café, or maybe chalking up their hands for another climb. Honestly, it’s the kind of life that belongs in a montage—sweaty palms, ink-stained fingers, and a wild spark in their eyes that never really goes out. They’re always chasing that next rush, whether it’s on a mountain or a page.
