Dulquer, son of Malayalam actor Mammootty, predominantly works in the Malayalam film industry. He has appeared in a number of Tamil, Hindi, and Telugu language films since his debut with the 2012 Malayam film Second Show. His first film in Telugu language was Mani Ratnam's O Kadhal Kanmani, released to the Telugu-speaking audience as O Bangaram.
In a note he shared on his social media accounts on Tuesday, Dulquer recalled his journey from O Bangaram to Sita Ramam- Telugu-language period romance film written and directed by Hanu Raghavapudi. Addressing his letter to 'the wonderful Telugu audience,' the actor wrote, "My first ever film that was dubbed In Telugu and released was OK Bangaram. Thanks to Mani Sir, you all took a chance on me and gave me immense love in my first outing. Then, Nagi & Vyjayanthi gave me the opportunity to play Gemini in Mahanati and even though it had grey shades, the love and respect I got for the role and film was unlike anything I expected. Ammadi became a permanent part of my life wherever I went. Kanulu Kanulanu Dochayante & Kurup were dubbed films, yet the love you gave to those films is something I’ll never forget."
Dulquer continued, "When Swapna and Hanu approached me with Sita Ramam, I knew I was in safe hands. I knew we would be delivering a quality film and I want to always do only those straight Telugu films that will be unique and pathbreaking. The film is a combined effort of so many artists and talents and crew and it became as beautiful as it is because of everyone involved. I cried on the day of release because I was so overwhelmed with the film and how people were accepting the film. The love you’re showing all of us be it Hanu, Mrunal, Rashmika, Sumanth Anna, Vishal, PS Vinod sir and myself, isn’t something we can explain in words."
