Prithviraj's anti BJP stance / Mohanlal Fans body divided / Mammooty supports Prithviraj

Mohanlal Fans Association general secretary Binu Raj has resigned after major differences in the body over Empuran arose. Director Prithviraj mother Mallika an actress says that the allegation by Actor Major Ravi that Mohanlal did not know about the controversial scenes is false and he was kept in the loop. She said all the blame is now being shifted on to her son. She claimed that Mammootty liked her FB post.

Empuran Director Prithviraj’s support to Lakshwadeep campaign, CAA , his brother Indrajith Sukumaran had come out in support of Ayesha Renna who was seen confronting the Delhi Police during the agitation have been pointed out by RSS mouth piece Organiser to show that he has been anti BJP always. The article asks - Double standards of Prthiviraj can been seen from the fact that he remains mysteriously silent when it comes to local issues, such as the Munambam case, where hundreds of Christian families face eviction by the WAQF Board. He speaks out about the CAA but does not address Hindu persecution in Bangladesh. It further asks - Prithiviraj needs to answer as to why he choose to name the main villain in the movie as Bajrangbali, another name for Hanuman, the greatest devotee of Shri Ram. This character is depicted as the central Home Minister. Excerpts from ORGANISER review : The political undertone of the film turns darker in the climax. The pro-Hindu leader clearly resembling the image of Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi Ji is killed. His allies are gunned down, while the ones standing victorious alongside Prithviraj and Mohanlal are portrayed as foreigners. The implication is chilling a subtle suggestion that the Prime Minister of India could be eliminated with the help of foreign forces.......

. "This is a mother's pain. There is no point in someone making somebody a scapegoat wrote Mallika after actor- Director Major Ravi said that Lal awas kept in the dark about the scenes. The actor thanked Mammootty who supported her FB post.. "Some people have deliberately spread the idea that Prithviraj cheated Mohanlal and the producers, including Antony Perumbavoor, by taking up Empuran, and some media outlets have now taken it up. Knowing what happened behind the scenes of this film, I am extremely hurt that some people are trying to isolate Prithviraj," she said in a Facebook post in Malayalam. "They all read the script together. They all saw the scenes being shot together and everyone said okay. And when everything is done and the movie is released, how can Prithviraj alone be responsible for it?" she said. Ms Sukumaran said there is no shot in the movie that Mohanlal and Antony Perumbavoor did not know about.
