The recent joint resignation of the executive committee members of the Association of Malayalam Movie Artists (AMMA), led by veteran actor Mohanlal, amidst ongoing sexual harassment allegations and the Hema Committee report findings concerning the Malayalam film industry, is seen as poorly timed. The resignations raise concerns about justice for the victims who have spoken up against perpetrators and enablers. The decision to dissolve the committee due to allegations from the Hema Committee report prompts questions about moral responsibility and the need for more than just resignations. The move is viewed as a setback to the momentum of the movement against gender exploitation and the protection of women's rights in the workplace. The official statement mentions the formation of a new committee within two months but remains silent on addressing ongoing cases and ensuring justice for the victims.In the meantime, the fate of individuals already under investigation remains uncertain. Two months can feel like a long period in a woman's quest for justice. Recently, several Malayalam actors have come together in support of their female colleagues, calling for impactful reforms and a safer work environment for all. The outcomes of the Hema Committee report and the responses of industry veterans and stakeholders will shape the direction of similar movements across the country. Discussions on enhancing the inclusivity of film industry bodies through greater female representation in leadership roles will be crucial. Actor Shammi Thilakan emphasized the importance of preserving the industry for future generations, urging for positive change rather than decline.
