Long before Salim Kumar was nationally recognized for his acting prowess, he had already carved a remarkable niche of his own into the stellar comic scene of Malayalam cinema already spangled with the antics of stalwarts like Jagathy, Innocent, Kuthiravattam Pappu and Mamukkoya, and became the unbridled king of comic one-liners in Malayalam cinema.
The Malayalam language that he uses, rings on its own vernacular with bespoke words enriching the lexis and the English language is almost always pushed off the edge of the cliff. Delivered frequently in the sing-song lilt adapted in characteristic Katha-Prasangam style popularized by the likes of the legendary Samba Sivan, his quotes are a pop phenomena forming an integral part of the day-to-day Malayali banter. Following is a list of 50 of the funniest and the most noteworthy of them all.
