After being conferred as Lt. Colonel in the Territorial Army, Superstar Mohanlal was back to Kerala Today. The actor was greeted with cheers from his huge fans who were waiting for hours outside Kochi airport to get a glimpse of their favourite actor, that too in army uniform. But to the disappointment of them Lal appeared in just a casual blue jeans and a black shirt.

Seeing the big crowd and hearing about their intentions, Lal made it clear that he can appear in army attires as per the rule, only at the official functions of the territorial army. The actor is all set to lead his battalion and accept a salute from the prime minister in a Army parade, this October, along with other functions like Band Display and Blood Donation Camp planned as part of the Diamond Jubilee Celebrations of the Territorial Army. Before that he will go on for a month's training at the Kannur Territorial Battalion.

Earlier this week, Army chief general Deepak Kapoor has formally “pipped” the actor after the impressive ‘investiture’ ceremony at the Army Headquarters.

Lt Col Mohanlal will be working with the Kerala based 122 Infantry Battalion of the Territorial Army (TA)

In the last couple of years Lal had been to Tiger Hill and Dras in Kargil to shoot for his hit movies like ‘Keerthichakra’ and ‘Kurukshetra’ and to experience first hand, he conflict conditions and the reflex actions of army officers on adverse conditions, which lead to his interest in joining the territorial army.
