Kunchacko Boban, Jayasurya Share Jaundice on Swapnakoodu Set
Kunchacko Boban and Jayasurya are actors who worked together in a Malayalam movie called Swapnakoodu.
While filming, Jayasurya got sick with a fever that turned out to be jaundice.
Kunchacko went to the hospital to help him.
A few days later, Kunchacko also got jaundice.
The two actors were very close friends and even joked that they were like twins.
Swapnakoodu was a big hit and helped all the actors become famous.
The story shows how close friends can share both good times and health problems.
It also reminds us that even famous people can get sick.
The film is remembered for its fun story and the friendship of its stars.
Kunchacko Boban and Jayasurya, co‑stars of 2005 Malayalam film Swapnakoodu, developed a close friendship during filming.
The two actors reportedly contracted jaundice at the same time while on the set, with Jayasurya first falling ill and Kunchacko following four days later.
Swapnakoodu was a blockbuster that launched the careers of Prithviraj Sukumaran, Meera Jasmine, Bhavana, and Jayasurya, while Kunchacko was already a star.
The film follows three hotel‑management students in Pondicherry who become tenants in a house owned by an elderly woman, with romance developing among the characters.
