Kerala story of India's win at Cannes Film Fest
According to Kerala’s print media, Actress Kanni Kusruti has become an International celebrity after appearing at Cannes Film Festival with a bag ( clutch) shaped like a watermelon for screening of All we Imagine as Light directed by Payal Kapadia.. This bag has the colours of Palestine flag and it was her support to Hamas. From what we did after a tracking on net, Cate Blamchett is the only one who got mileage in the western media for her gown which had green interior lining that emerged as she walked the carpet. New York Times reports - As photos of the actress spread online, some interpreted her wearing that palette on a red carpet as a tribute to the black, green, white and red Palestinian flag.
Photos of Ms. Blanchett in the dress posted on Instagram by her stylist and her makeup artist received dozens of comments with emojis of the Palestinian flag or a watermelon, a symbol used to show support for Palestinians partly because the fruit has a similar color scheme as the flag.
Ms. Blanchett, who does not have her own social media accounts, has not publicly commented on the dress. Representatives for the actress did not respond to requests for comment for this article; neither did her stylist, Mr. Ackerman, or representatives for Jean Paul Gaultier . The story was headlined - Did Cate Blanchett Make a Pro-Palestinian Fashion Statement at Cannes?. Cate came for screening of a docudrama on Trump’s early days. Trump calls him the best friend that Israel had ever had.
National media has to a large extent not reported this. Everybody went about Director Kapadia and her renegade behaviour on FTII and so on. Modi too had nothing to say about Kani water melon clutch at Cannes. He praised her remarkable talent and reminded us about her being an FTII product on X. Some comments _
It’s the same Payal Kapadia who in 2015 faced disciplinary action for protesting against the appointment of your Government Stooge Gajendra Chauhan as FTII Chairman. She had lost her scholarship and is still facing Court Case
The same Payal Kapadia was forced to protest for 4 months & even her grand was cancelled by your Govt. All that to protect your stooge Gajendra Chauhan. Today you are bowing down to her talent. This is the Karma that will catch you again on June 4th
Azzeez Nedumgad who acted a Malayali Doctor in the Payal Kapadia film says that Mammootty asked him why he skipped the Festival. So it implies that Mammootty was unhappy that Azeez lost a chance to support Hamas in Cannes.
Mammooty has inadvertently contributed to the You Tubers writing on cinema and operating in and out of Kerala to join forces. It seems that YT reviewer Aswant KOK review of TURBO was yanked off after Mammootty Kompany the producer objected to use of film still as DP for review. To counter this, all the reviwers who had links of KOK review uploaded on their sites. Ironically , The re- telecast of Vanitha Film Award on last weekend showed a non cholent Mammootty saying no matter what a good film will run. In Kani hogging headlines back home, out Santosh Sivan getting homered at Cannes got a cursory mention.
