Son of renowned star Mammootty, actor Dulquer Salmaan started his career as a business manager at a construction company in Dubai. However, his love for cinema and acting made him leave the job and follow in his father’s footsteps.

Talking about his inspiration, Dulquer says, “My father, Mammootty, is my greatest inspiration in the film industry. He was the one who supported me when I decided to shift careers to become an actor.”

In a time when remakes of songs and movies are a trend, Dulquer says, “I don’t believe in remakes. I feel that classics should be left untouched.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
