Life recently took a 360-degree turn for this daily wage laborer who gave his sweat and blood every day to earn a living. 60-year-old Mammikka from Kozhikode, Kerala, was often spotted in a faded lungi and shirt.
But it was a photographer’s paarkhi nazar that changed his appearance and his fate. Photographer Shareek Vayalil was the one who saw a model in this daily wager worker, reported India Today. He then shared images of Mammikka on his social media page which went viral.

Apparently, people thought he had some likeness to South actor Vinayakan. And then, after getting an assignment, his transformation is just unrealistic.

Mammikka is elated with his growing success as a model and wants to continue in this profession while doing his regular laborer job. Kudos to Shareek Vayalil who found a diamond from the coal mine.
