Viral video reimagines Prakash Mathew`s life after Sona`s rejection in Niram, showing him as a global music superstar is out now
Characters Aby and Sona from the iconic 1999 Malayalam film Niram have long remained fan favourites. But no one really thought about what happened to Prakash Mathew when Sona said no and went with Aby.
A viral YouTube video now attempts to answer that question — with an unexpected and uplifting twist. The video creatively reimagines Prakash’s life after the heartbreak, portraying him as a global music sensation, without being sad about losing his love.
Set to a mash-up of the nostalgic “Prayam Nammil Moham Nalki” from Niram and “Starboy” by The Weeknd, the short video paints a vibrant picture of Prakash’s imagined journey. From once being the campus heart-throb and singer, he is now shown as a superstar captivating massive crowds — surrounded by celebrities, flashing cameras, and global brand endorsements.
Prakash Mathew is portrayed as an international icon — an ambassador for top brands and one of the world’s richest performers. All this is imagined without the shadow of sorrow over lost love.
The video, though only a few minutes long, has struck a chord with audiences and is receiving widespread applause on social media. Viewers are now asking: Did Sona ever find out what Prakash became?
Niram, directed by Kamal and released in 1999, starred Kunchacko Boban and Shalini in lead roles. It marked Shalini’s final appearance in a Malayalam film. Actor Boban Alummoodan played the role of Prakash Mathew, the soulful singer who quietly stepped back in the love triangle.
