The man who made @Mohanlal and @mammukka Superstars, through his extraordinary anti-hero characters.
The man who made all of India, including Satyajit Ray turn their heads towards Malayalam commercial cinema with New Delhi. (Contd)

The man who turned down a tempting offer to remake New Delhi from Superstar Rajinikanth, since he chose to stand by his previous commitment.
The man who almost made his directorial debut through a mammoth film bringing Superstar Rajinikanth to Malayalam, along with Mammootty.

When that film was stalled, he made a relatively smaller movie, an entire generation's favourite childhood memory, the inimitable Manu Uncle, bringing Mammootty, Mohanlal and Suresh Gopi together for a children's film, and won a National Award for the same.

The man who gave us Vincent Gomez, GK, Kottayam Kunjachan, Tony Kurishinkal, Minnal Prathapan, Kannan Nair, Kuttappayi, Nair Saab and so many more unforgettable, iconic characters.

The man who made us weep buckets without any mercy, through Aakashadhoothu.
The man who almost wrote Mani Ratnam's Anjali after the latter was mighty impressed by New Delhi.

The legend who shared his entire life history with such an eloquent narration through this wonderful programme, which can be a textbook for aspiring writers from future generations.
The younger generation had just begun to discover & celebrate him after this programme was aired.

And he was preparing to make his big comeback soon.

One of my favourite screenwriters. Never got an opportunity to meet him.
Thank you for all the magic and goosebumps.
Rest in power, Legend!
Dennis Joseph sir!
