Of course its a badran magic..and its the best film which combined both mass and class together..but the role by mohanlal was something that no other actor can do..
because im sure that he is the only actor in india who hv so much commercial hits as well as art films like vanaprastham and kamaladhalam..
may be suresh gopi can do that but it might be against directors thought...hats off to both director and mohanlal
And mammooty can also do the role but its stunt scenes are out of his range
