New Delhi : Mallika Sukumaran, the mother of director Prithviraj on the controversy, which has been going on for a long time, has said that her son is being tried to forcefully implicate her son in the film controversy. He expressed grief that some people, without Mohanlal or the producers of the film, are conspiring to trap Prithviraj alone and to trap him. He wrote on Facebook that Prithviraj never cheated anyone in this film.
Mallika said that she is looking at this controversy for the last few days. Since the director is his son, she was silent on this issue. But now some people are spreading false stories that Prithviraj has cheated Mohanlal and producers, especially Antony Perumbavur. The media is also promoting these false things.
Mohanlal and producers knew everything
Mallika said that Mohanlal and Antony knew everything related to the film. The script was read by the entire team together, every scene was approved by seeing it together. If there was a need to make any changes, writers Murali Gopi would fix it but it did not happen. Then now after the release of the film, why is Prithviraj being convicted alone and why not anyone.
Mallika mentioned an old conversation when Prithviraj was shooting in Gujarat. So he had told on the phone that Mohanlal is there and he has to show every scene, as well as to talk to Antony. This means that everyone knew everything related to the film.
Who is spreading false rumors?
Mallika said that some people are spreading lies for their benefit. They are trying to justify Prithviraj to please Mohanlal and Antony. But this is wrong. He clearly said that those who are targeting Prithviraj, they will not be able to escape from God. He also responded to Major Ravi, who made a statement against Prithviraj. Mallika said that Mohanlal and Antony never said that Prithviraj cheated them, then Major Ravi needed to give this statement?
Politics and film industry conspiracy
Mallika said that some politicians, organizations, fans and media are engaged in defaming Prithviraj. Even some people of the film industry may join this conspiracy. He said that his family stays away from politics, but he gives love and respect to people of all political parties. Nevertheless, some people are extracting personal enmity.
Answer to media
Mallika also questioned the media. He said that a journalist spread a lie that Prithviraj was going to the censor board and begging not to change the film, while the truth is that it is normal for the director or producer to stay there at the time of censoring.
A news anchor had called Prithviraj a ‘fool’, on which Mallika expressed displeasure and said that her son is not repeatedly changing his stand on any issue, but some journalists keep changing the channel themselves.
Mallika’s last message
He said that Prithviraj never opposed anyone’s political thinking, but now some people are targeting him. He warned that those who are spreading lies against his son, they will have to answer one day in front of God. He appealed to the public not to identify the truth and do not blame any innocent without reason.
