Usthad Malayalam -

Before Usthad , Dileep was largely known for comic roles. This film transformed his image. His portrayal of the vulnerable, self-effacing Parameshwaran—who is willing to lose his love to see her happy—struck a chord with the youth. It introduced the concept of the "sacrificial lover" who values the beloved’s well-being over his own happiness.

Ustad's entry into the world of dubbing was marked by chance, as he began assisting established dubbing artists in the early 1970s. His big break came when he was asked to dub for the Malayalam version of the Tamil film "Arangetram" (1973). The success of this film catapulted Ustad to fame, and he soon became the preferred dubbing artist for many leading actors, including Mohanlal, Mammootty, and Suresh Gopi. usthad malayalam
