The Association of Malayalam Movie Artists (AMMA) is currently facing an unprecedented crisis following the mass resignation of its entire leadership. President Mohanlal, along with all the office bearers, has stepped down, marking the first time in the organisation's history that a collective resignation has taken place within its governing body. This dramatic turn of events was triggered after actor Siddique resigned from his position as General Secretary, which was quickly followed by the resignation of all 17 members of the Executive Committee.
Before arriving at this decision, Mohanlal reportedly consulted with fellow actor Mammootty, who agreed that resignation was the best course of action. As per Manorama News, despite efforts from some quarters to convince Mohanlal to reconsider, he remained steadfast in his decision to step down. In the wake of these resignations, an ad-hoc committee will temporarily manage AMMA's responsibilities.
According to the organisation's bylaws, members of the outgoing Executive Committee will serve on this interim committee. However, within two months, AMMA must hold elections to appoint new office bearers. It has been confirmed that neither Mohanlal nor any of the current office bearers will be returning to their positions.
