Superstar Mamootty, worth Rs 340 crore, barely invested in startups, but one he had shares in earned over Rs 800 crore in 2025. CA says, 'He has a good…’

Malayalam superstar Mammootty is not just an institution in Mollywood (and beyond); he also has a commendable networth. As per Mashable India, his networth is a staggering Rs 340 crore. In a chat with 42 PodCatcher, Mammootty’s chartered accountant, Sanil Kumar said the superstar didn’t engage in investing in any startups and preferred low-risk investments. “He doesn’t get involved in businesses like that. His investments are mostly in things like land. Beyond that, he hasn’t shown much interest in taking risks and running a business,” he said.

However, one time, the Bramayugam actor was a stakeholder in a business called Motherhood, a maternal care service run by his daughter Surumy and her husband, Dr Mohammed Rehan Sayeed. Sanil revealed that 15 years ago, Motherhood sold at a very good price once it proved to be profitable.

“Mammootty was a major shareholder in Motherhood. It was sold at a very good premium. You could call it a startup back then. I am talking about some 15 years ago. It’s only now that we hear about startups every day. Motherhood began as a startup. Then a foreign company came in and took over. Beyond such endeavours, Mammootty doesn’t get into big businesses. But he has the good sense and clarity to keep everything (his assets) safe,” he revealed.


Motherhood was operated by Rhea Healthcare Pvt Ltd. Dr Mohammed Rehan Sayeed served as the chairman, and Surumy was the director.

As per a report by the Hindu, Motherhood had a valuation of Rs 250 crore in 2015. “Today we have six hospitals. Our bed strength in the last 18 months has increased from 32 to 240. Our next step is to increase our presence in the South by building hospitals in the southern border cities before stepping into the North. We have not closed in on any city but are looking for appropriate locations,” Rehan told the Hindu.

Motherhood was acquired by acquired by the private equity firm TPG Growth in July 2016.

According to a 2025 Hindu report, Motherhood Hospitals earned an Rs 810 crore revenue that year.
