For example, the horse in Kilukkam Kilukilukkam is now a major contestant for lead roles, often giving competition to human actors like Jayasurya. The horse also managed to give sleepless nights to the producer. In Thanmatra, it was a lizard, who was the lone witness to Mohanlal making love to his wife.
