The
internet
has
been
buzzing
with
rumours
that
Kerala
superstar
Mammootty
has
colon
cancer,
and
that
he
has
been
hospitalised
to
undergo
treatment
for
it.
Rumours
also
suggest
that
since
it
was
detected
early,
the
cancer
is
treatable.
But
the
actor’s
public
relations
team
confirmed
to
Mid-Day that
the
superstar
is
indeed
fine,
and
that
the
rumours
are
just
that,
‘fake
news’.
Mammootty,
73,
is
reportedly
on
vacation,
as
he
is
observing
the
Ramzan
fast.
After
the
break,
he
will
return
to
the
sets
to
shoot
for
Mahesh
Narayanan’s
film
with
Mohanlal,
Fahadh
Faasil
and
Nayanthara.
