No hard feelings over airport delay: Mammootty

A few weeks ago, superstar Mammootty was briefly 'separated for questioning' by security officials at the JFK International Airport, New York, for more than two hours on April 29 as they had instructions to check the details of all passengers with the name ‘Muhammad Ismail’.

56-year-old Mammootty, whose full name is Muhammadkutty Ismail Paniparambil, is back home on Saturday after a nearly month-long visit to the US. Talking about the event, Mammootty said that he has no ill-feelings towards the officials at the airport as they were just doing their job.

"It became news here because it was me and do you know there were 30 others whose clearance was delayed because the officials were checking their papers too. I had no issues at all; they treated me properly and I have nothing against them. I said who I am and when I told them that my website reveals everything, they were convinced after they checked it."

He said he was in the US as part of a fund-raising campaign for his close friend, attorney Stanley Kalathara, who is contesting the election for the New York City Council from District 25, which includes Jackson Heights and Corona. Mammootty added that his trip went off well. Mammootty will soon begin shooting of his movies in the pipeline: Gireesh's Handsome, Jayaraj's Loudspeaker and Renjith's Palery Maanikyam.
