In the world of Malayalam cinema, the friendship between Sreenivasan and Innocent is legendary, filled with humor and camaraderie. During the filming of the 1986 film 'Sanmanassullavarkku Samadhanam', Sreenivasan pulled off a hilarious prank by slipping a fake property transfer document into a scene where Innocent was meant to sign an agreement. Innocent, unaware of the trick, signed the document, leading to a comical moment when he realized he had 'transferred' all his properties to Sreenivasan. This incident not only highlights their playful relationship but also underscores a deeper bond, as Sreenivasan has often credited Innocent for his support during tough times, including financial assistance during his wedding. Innocent, who was also a politician and a cancer survivor, passed away in 2023 at the age of 75. Sreenivasan, a revered figure in Malayalam cinema, died in December 2025 at 69. Their legacy continues through their families, particularly Sreenivasan's sons, who are active in the film industry.
