Does Mamootty have horns?

At the audio launch of his Pattanathil Bhootham, the actor surprised everybody by coming for the function with a pair of red horns attached to his head!
Mammootty told Dileep, one of the guests at the function - "I had gone to Hong Kong, for shooting a song for Daddy Cool, and saw this horn at a wayside shop and picked it up. It remained me so much about the horn the friendly ghost wears in Pattanathil Bhootham"
The music of Pattanathil Bhootham, by new music director Shaan Rahman (the guy who made the album `Coffee@MG Road´ with Vineeth Sreenivasan) is a hit.
The film is now almost certain to release in 111 screens on July 2.
