These senior actors in Malayalam cinema have reinvented themselves

At 72, Vijayaraghavan is on a roll. In Pookkalam, he plays a 100-year-old protagonist who files for a divorce when he finds his wife had an extramarital affair. But in Neymar, which was released after that, he appears as a cool, colourful, loud dad to a teenager, even playing to the gallery with whistle-worthy scenes.

Jagadish, 67, is in no mood to slow down. Having gradually shifted from comedy to serious roles, the actor has proved his mettle with intense roles in Rorschach , Kaapa and Purusha Pretham.
