NoRanjith, the director and chairman of the film academy, said that it is not time to cut off Dileep from his mind. This was revealed in a Media One editorial. Ranjith added that Dileep is the only accused in the case of assaulting the actress.
Dileep is the only accused in the actress assault case. If the court decides that he is guilty, Dileep’s name will be cut from his mind with great difficulty and pain. But now it won’t.
Dileep was seen as unexpected in Fiok. Didn’t know he was the chairman of the organization. The director said that even if he had known, he would have attended the reception.
Ranjith also talks regarding the absence of actress Rima Kallingal and director Ashiq Abu from the protest group organized by the film industry organizations following the incident where the actress was attacked. This was said in response to a question that Ranjith was not ready to say that he was with a girl who was very much alive.
There is no need to go everywhere and shout slogans. The first move came from my side immediately following this incident. I am the one who called Mammootty and Innocent, the office bearers, and called a protest meeting. They asked if a press release would be enough. Just take the press release and tear it up. It was I who said that the protest meeting should be held at the Durbar Hall grounds. Ranji Panicker and himself called everyone. Ashiq Abu and Rimi Kallingal were the first to be called in that basket. But they left because of some reason – said Pramod Raman, quoting Ranjith’s words.
