A native of Malappuram named Jesfer Kottakunnu is on cloud nine after the legendary actor Mammootty surprised him by wearing a special shirt designed by him. The incredibly talented artist is suffering from a rare neuromuscular disease called muscular dystrophy. 

Jesfer is unfortunately paralyzed below his neck but he has not let the disease affect him. He painted a beautiful shirt by holding a paintbrush between his teeth. Jesfer gifted the shirt to his idol Mammooty. 


In addition to accepting the gift, the Bramayugam actor wore it for an event. While he had promised to wear the shirt, Jesfer feared he might have forgotten. But the artist was taken aback when he saw Mammootty wearing the shirt he had designed for the song launch of Idiyan Chandu. Jesfer felt happy and overwhelmed. 

For the unversed, the CBI 5 actor met his fan when he was in Dubai for the promotions for his film Turbo. It was Jesfer's greatest dream to meet Mammootty in person. AK Musthafa, the CEO of AK Group, arranged their meeting. 

Jesfer designed the shirt to gift something special to Mammootty. He purchased linen fabric, stitched it to Mammootty’s measurements, and painted it using acrylic paint. In addition to the shirt, Jesfer also gifted the actor a portrait that he painted.
