Rekhachithram, featuring Asif Ali alongside Anaswara Rajan, has officially premiered on Sony Liv on March 6, 2025, ahead of its scheduled release. This Malayalam mystery thriller has garnered significant attention, with viewers expressing their admiration for both its narrative and performances. A particular highlight for audiences has been Mammootty's cameo, which has been lauded as the "best AI recreation in Indian cinema." Fans have taken to social media to celebrate Mammootty's role in this film directed by Jofin T Chacko.

Mammootty's Role in Rekhachithram  

A pivotal moment that has significantly enhanced the viewing experience of Rekhachithram is the brief scene featuring Mammootty as he appeared in the 1980s. The film revolves around the mystery of a young girl who was last seen on the set of the 1985 film, Kathodu Kathoram, necessitating the inclusion of Mammootty from that era. The filmmakers successfully achieved this through advanced AI technology.

Viewers have been commending director Jofin T Chacko and his technical team for their remarkable work in resurrecting the iconic Mammootty on screen. One netizen shared a clip of Mammootty's entrance in the film, stating, "Goosebumps scene from #Rekhachithram," and described it as "The Best Work From Malayalam Cinema." Another user remarked, "Presenting the Best AI Recreation in Indian Cinema." Many have also noted the commendable nature of this achievement, especially given the comparatively modest budgets of Malayalam films compared to those in the Tamil and Telugu film industries.

Some fans also recounted how the theatres erupted at this scene, during the time of Rekhachithram’s theatrical run. 

Despite the primary focus on Mammootty's involvement with AI, netizens have also commended Asif Ali and the other cast members for their performances, as well as the storyline and various other aspects of the film.

The narrative of Rekhachithram centers around a police officer who uncovers a 40-year-old mystery involving a young girl named Rekha, who was last seen at the filming location of a Mammootty movie.
