KERALA : The Malayalam film world was rocked by a series of high-profile resignations, all triggered by the Justice K Hema Committee’s shocking revelations of harassment and abuse towards women professionals. The allegations prompted a wave of resignations, including that of actor Mohanlal, who led AMMA through its highs and lows.

The dramatic shake-up didn’t stop there. Following Mohanlal’s resignation, the entire executive committee of AMMA submitted their joint resignation, marking a sweeping change in the organization. The Malayalam film industry faced mounting scrutiny as fresh allegations continued to surface, including a resurfaced claim against actor-politician Mukesh.

In response to the growing outrage, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan convened an urgent meeting with senior police officials. The government has pledged to tackle the issue head-on, establishing a seven-member special team to investigate the serious allegations against several figures in the industry.

The resignations didn’t end with Mohanlal. Director Ranjith and actor Siddique also stepped down from their leadership roles in the state-run film academy and AMMA, respectively, further reflecting the deep impact of these revelations.
