Association of Malayalam Movie Artistes (AMMA) Under Criticism

Referring to the tight battle between actor Thilakan and the Association of Malayalam Movie Artistes (AMMA), popular Malayalam writer, orator and critic Sukumar Azhikode said that AMMA was trying to impose a military rule of sorts.

"Solving problems between members is the prime duty of an organisation. Artistes are independent people and they cannot be subjected to any disciplinary action. It will be like the Sahithya Akademi directing writers not in its good books to stop writing," he added.

Notably, this is the second time Sukumar Azhikode criticise film personalities. Earlier, he lashed out at superstar Mohanlal, saying that he is selling the recognition and fame earned through acting by appearing in jewellery shop advertisements. Azhikode had alleged that Mohanlal is hungry for money and that is why his is acting in romantic ventures even at his age.
