Wrongdoers should be punished if there is evidence against them,” the “Drishyam” actor Mohanlal said while referring to the allegations of sexual misconduct and assaults that surfaced against some of the members of the Association.
The 64-year-old resigned from his post at the AMMA last month after the allegations surfaced, and was criticised by many for not staying in power and ensuring that the victims get justice.
He was speaking to media on the repercussions of the Hema committee report.
Other members of the film body’s executive committee also submitted resignations as the #MeToo storm in the state grew stronger. He was happy that the report was submitted and the real culprits must be punished.
He said Malayalam cinema is a huge industry where thousands of people work and the actors’s association AMMA (Association of Malayalam Movie Artists) could not address issues that cropped up there.
