Amid the ongoing drug-related controversies that have stirred the Malayalam film industry, actor Unni Mukundan has taken a bold and inspiring stand through a thought-provoking social media post. Best known for his intense performance in the action-packed film ‘Marco’, the actor used Instagram to deliver a powerful message about real strength and choices, subtly addressing the growing concern over substance abuse.
Sharing a behind-the-scenes snap from the violent action flick ‘Marco’, where his well-defined six-pack abs are prominently visible, Unni wrote a hard-hitting caption.
“ If that’s how you feel Man enough, please reconsider your options”
“The weight of a single cigarette typically ranges between 0.7 to 1.0 grams, depending on the brand and type. So, the total weight (including the filter and paper) is generally about 1 gram on average. If that’s how you feel Man enough, please reconsider your options,” he stated.
“You will need something called, The Grit”
He went on to add: “FYI: Men lift 50 kgs of iron to actually go high. Guys, Choice is yours. P.S: Easier to mimic the Marco with Cigs on hand. Try being the Marco with Six Pack on hand. To be the latter, you will need something called, The Grit.”
A perfect message for the society
While Unni Mukundan’s character ‘Marco’ is often seen smoking in the film, the actor’s caption clearly draws a line between reel and real, urging fans not to idolize the smoking but instead channel their energy towards building strength and discipline.
Netizens say – You will be a best father and great husband too
Unni Mukundan’s post was soon flooded with comments. One comment read, “Kallum..kanjavum..synthetic drugsum pennu casum kindu cinema lokam nanam kettu nilkumbol enganeyum undu chilar health and body nokki mattulavarkku role model akunna chiler…unni ammayudeyum achantteyum bagyam aanu engane oru makanei labhikkan…u will be a best father and great husband too athu urappanu..kuttykale kandal pine parayanda swayam oru kutty aavum…ethokeyanu enum eniku unniye estapedanulla karanam..always a UMF much.” Another comment read, “Rightly said!!!
