We all have seen amazing makeovers across decades through proper grooming, makeup, hairdo, and most importantly photography that can enhance one’s image like anything. These days such experiments have increased and gained more popularity through social media.

Yet this instance is not a regular makeover story.

A 60-year old man named Mammikka from Kodivalli, Vennakadu, Kerala who works as a daily wage labourer got the makeover of his life when a renowned photographer / cameraman Shareek Vayalil spotted him and saw the potential of a model in him.

The result is that now he is totally rocking social media with his breath-taking makeover and photoshoot for a firm sporting a suit.

Having Saved The Life Of A Cameraman, This 60 YO Labourer Was Treated With Photoshoot

Apparently, Vayalil had previously shared a photo of Mammikka on his social media profile, which went viral due to his resemblance to actor Vinayakan. Meanwhile he had to do a photoshoot for his wedding suit company. This is when he could envision none but Mammika to film for the shoot.

For the makeover, Majnas, a make-up artist, did his make-up, with help from Aashiq Fuad and Shabeeb Vayalil. Mammikka further sported fabulous shades, trendy blazers, and an iPad in his hand giving him the appearance of some sort of mogul.

Watch the entire makeover here.

Soon, these unrecognizable or we can better term it as overtly refined images of Mammikka became a craze in the media.

A Bond Beyond Photoshoot

There is a special bonding between Mammikka and Vayalil that goes way back than the photoshoot project. As shared by Vayalil, he has been neighbours with Mammikka right from his childhood and Mammikka literally saved his life once.

“He is my best friend since childhood. Once, when I was nine years old, I went for a swim in the river and was almost swept away. He was the one who saved me. We have had a good bonding since then,” shared Shareek with the media.

And look how this thing took shape into something very pious and artistic. Now, Vayalil introduces his friend has Mammikka 2.0, jokingly.

Mammikka is still carrying on with his daily wage profession at the moment. But his new found fame has ignited the wish in him to do more modeling in future.
