THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The recently released Justice Hema Committee report has exposed the dark secrets of the Malayalam film industry, leaving many in shock. According to the report, the industry is dominated by a criminal mafia that preys on vulnerable individuals, including minor children. The report sheds light on the rampant issues of casteism, human trafficking, sexual harassment, and human rights violations.
Furthermore, the report accuses prominent industry figures, including actors, directors, producers, and production controllers, of engaging in the sexual exploitation of women. Meanwhile, the report also notes that not all men in the film industry are misogynistic and that there are many who behave in a very dignified manner. The Cultural Affairs Department released the report at 2:30 pm yesterday under the Right to Information Act.
Kerala Kaumudi Senior Sub-Editor Manoj Vijayaraj and other media personnel received the report. The report was released after the High Court Division Bench dismissed an appeal filed by actress Ranjini against the release of the report. The report states that the attack on the actress in Kochi was not an isolated incident and that many others had been attacked before, but only this one came to light.
Many revered film personalities are actually two-faced. Most of the culprits are highly influential individuals who control the Malayalam film industry. People are hesitant to file complaints with internal complaint redressal committees as they.
