Although many Kerala expats in the UAE have shared their best wishes for the Indian actor on social media, a Dubai-based travel agency has decided to increase the stakes.

Smart Travels LLC is offering 70 Mammootty fans who celebrate their 70th birthday this year with a one-month free tourist visa. Afi Ahmad, managing director of Smart Travels, told Khaleej Times that the visa includes one month of free travel insurance.
