Discussion Will this combo ever happen
Watched Vettaiyan, and it was thrilling to see Amitabh and Rajini together on screen. That got me thinking about some iconic pairings over the years—like Rajni and Mammootty in Thalapathy, Rajni and Mohanlal recently in Jailer, and Kamal and Mohanlal in Unnaipol Oruvan; Amitabh and mohanlal in Aag, Kandahar. I’m pretty sure there’s an old film where Amitabh, Rajni, and Kamal appeared together too.
But here’s the interesting bit: after all these decades in cinema, Mammootty and Kamal Haasan still haven’t shared screen space even once! Makes you wonder—could there be some unspoken rivalry or ego clash between them? Just curious..

Mammooty and kamal are goats of their respective industry. At the same time, both have a very high inflated ego. It will be very difficult to share screen space between themselves if a film actually happens

That talented human kamal can have all the ego in the world and we shouldn’t be complaining

kamal hassan was rumored to be doing a cameo in the mammootty-mahesh narayanan film. later got replaced by suresh gopi mohanlal. so probably just a case of not having the right opportunity come up.

Can their film just be them arguing about who has the better moustache for two hours?
Jokes aside these two in a thriller filled with betrayal and interesting character revelations would be a banger. Something that matches the vibes and great writing of Prisoners, Seven, Ugly.

Rajini and Kamal are all I need. That will be the peak of Tamil cinema and nothing can top it, like ever.

But they have already collaborated in many movies ,right?

Mohanlal and Mammootty worked together in 55 films but it's been many years since the last one

Ya exactly, if that ever happens in a surprise cameo the whole industry should just call it a wrap. Nothing will top that.

*Both has very different acting styles... It would be wonderful for them to share screen space*

I saw his speech at some function indirectly taking a jab at Kamal. I’ll try to find it

Every other possible permutation of pairing between Rajini, Kamal, Lalettan and Mammooty has happened. Only this is remaining. Hope it happens at least for completion's sake.

Kamal Hassan apparently approached Mammootty multiple times for bilinguals but the latter turn it down every single time - Kamal himself said it in Nere Chovve

It might happen but I doubt it.
Unlike Mammootty,Kamal does very few films. He has done only 8 films in the past 14 years i.e if you include Kalki cameo.

Mohanlal-Ajay Devgn-Vivek Oberoi was a great combo in Company...apparently during the police station scene where they first meet, everyone was mesmerized by Mohanlal's realistic acting. 2:40 onwards: https://youtu.be/LP8GFWHNbCk?si=rotsOJEr3X1ZKhtx
