Career

In the movie, Mani played the character called Nateshan, which is considered one of the biggest villain characters in Malayalam.[14][15] Mani played the lead role in the family drama Aayirathil Oruvan (2009), which was critically acclaimed In 2010, Mani acted in several films in the lead roles such as Orange, Pulliman, Black Stallion and Canvas. However, most of these were a huge failure at box office. In 2012, he acted in the multi-starrer crime drama film Bachelor Party. His performance as Looyi Papan in Amen (2013) was acclaimed by both the critics and audience.[16]
Mani's last Malayalam movie is Poyi Maranju Parayathe, which was released in 2016 after his death.

He grabbed everyone's attention in the

Tamil film industry as the villain in the movie Gemini (2002), which featured Vikram in the lead role.[17] He acted in more than 30 Tamil films along with numerous Kannada and Telugu
films. His last Tamil film is Pudhusa Naan Poranthen released in 2016.

Most of his songs were written and composed by Arumugan Venkidangu.[18] He also released several religious songs and Mappila Pattukal.

Charity

Mani is well known for providing humanitarian assistance to people in need.

LDF. He had openly told that he was a Leftist and used to Campaign for CPI(M) and left parties during elections.[20] Mani is known for doing a lot of charity work for the poor people. Reportedly, on an average day, around 20 people from less privileged backgrounds used to come to visit him at his residence. As a fund-raiser and performer, he also had contributed money to the local festivals of the religious organisations and provided funds to the schools in his village.[21][22]

Death

Kalabhavan Mani died at 7:15 pm on 6 March 2016, aged 45. The day before, he was admitted to

acetaminophen in Kalabhavan Mani's body.[25]

On 8 March 2016, based on the initial

severe depression. However, Mani in his phase of depression and informed of severe liver damage conditions, ignored the doctors' warnings and continued with alcoholism. Even on the day before he died, he was allegedly reported consuming alcohol (beer) with friends in the outhouse of his house.[26][27]

His unexpected death led to a case by his friends and family which has been filed for investigation through

insecticides, which is banned in many countries for residential use, it is considered a hazardous substance for general ecology. Presence of chlorpyrifos along with methyl and ethyl alcohol contents were found excessively in the test samples. The report suggests that Mani might have consumed the poison knowingly or unknowingly over the days before his death. Therefore, the Government of Kerala has ordered a comprehensive probe in the death of Mani. The police is rounding the case through whom Mani could have accessed this poisonous concoction for substance abuse. Under RLV Ramakrishnan's suspicion Mani's three close friends have been taken into custody for questioning to rule out activities of vested interest.[29][30][31][32] On 11 June 2016, based on the recommendation of the state DGP, the Government of Kerala has decided the case to be investigated by CBI.[33] In May 2017 CBI took over the case and submitted FIR in which it was stated that the death of Kalabhavan Mani was due to unusual reasons.[34]

His sudden demise led to emotional reactions from his fans and many of his co-stars in the Malayalam Film Industry along with the rest of the South Indian Film Industry. The Mollywood film fraternity and thousands of fans of late actor Kalabhavan Mani paid homage to the versatile artiste during a memorial service on 13 March 2016, at Carmel Higher Secondary School in Chalakudy organised by well-wishers. Tributes were celebrated through the media with 2–3 hours programme special. Mani was cremated with full state honours at his home premises on 7 March. The shopkeepers of Chalakudy paid homage to Mani by closing their shops on the same day.

Legacy

Chalakkudikkaran Changathi is a 2018 Malayalam film directed by Vinayan based on the life of Kalabhavan Mani.[35]

Controversies

In an interview with journalist John Brittas, Mani stated that the State Government Award could easily have been bought off.[36]

On 14 May 2013, Mani has been accused of
