"Mom, Aunt - I have decided to go and meet Mammookka to learn more about acting before Mamangam shooting begins. I also heard he has the skill to jump 1 km up in sky while doing stunts beating all laws of gravity. I want to learn that too" 
" Dear Unni - Do you want to travel that far to learn that. Look at me. You have to just flex your face muscles, when you emote."
I read somewhere Adi Shankaracharya started Kumbh Mela concept after taking inspiration from Chera-chola-pandya trade and cultural Union that used to happen, the biggest one at Thirunavaya. It was called #mamangam
After the #Zamorin brought down the empire with the support of oman-based trader in the 13th century, #mamangam turned into an arena of pure bloodshed. It became a gladiator arena.
Though the Zamorin is known to people of the region as a provider for many temples, many don't know how he destroyed #Varahamurthy temple at #Panniyur. Reason: For the financer of the Zamorin, Varaha was haraam. Local lore says it took 4000 men to raze down the temple.
