In a nostalgic post on Instagram, she shared a throwback picture with Mammootty, writing, "This was my first ever 'audition' in my life. The magnitude of it never hit me back when it was happening, but who gets their first one taken by a legendary actor? Crazy right? They were casting for ‘Pattam Pole’ at the time with Dulquer, and Mammukka spotted me at a set I was visiting and recommended me for the film. That’s how I landed my first role ever," expressing her gratitude for his influence on her journey into acting.
"Happy birthday @mammootty sir... Thank you for bringing me into the magical world of movies."

She recounted, "I remember the day he walked onto our set as a surprise. I think all of us instantly dropped anything in our hands the moment we saw him. I was jealous of the boys who managed to grab pictures with him while I was stuck in costume and couldn’t."
"Despite the tension on set, his presence was always light, funny, and effortless. He inspires without trying and reminds us of our humanity. I hope our film makes him proud. Happy birthday to our Moothon...", Kalyani concluded.
