Jayasurya has posted a photo with Mammootty on Instagram. He captioned it Snehamulla Simham.
That is also the title of a 1986 Mammootty film directed by Sajan. The phrase roughly means "the lion with affection".

A chance meeting at the dubbing studio
The two met at Saptha Studio. Jayasurya was there to dub for his next film, Titans. Mammootty was dubbing for the Tamil film Om, which stars Dhanush.
Jayasurya said in an interview that sitting next to Mammootty while he dubbed in Tamil was a big experience. He said he watched how Mammootty changes his voice modulation for another language.
The post drew a warm response from fans in the comments.
Why it matters
Dubbing is usually the quiet, last stretch of a film. A chance meeting at that stage rarely makes news.
Here, it gave Jayasurya a free lesson from a senior actor. Mammootty has dubbed his own lines in several languages over the decades.
The photo also lands days before Jayasurya's next release. Titans is in theatres on October 22.
