Vinu Mohan, Tiny Tom, Jayan Cherthala, Anoop Chandran, Kukku Parmeswaran, Raveren, and Sai Krishna are in controversy for the post of treasurer. Jayan Cherthala, Raveren Laxmi Priya, Nasir Lathef, and Unni Shivpal are contesting for the post of Vice President, and taking Ansiba, Jayan Cherthala, and Anoop Chandran to the post of Joint Secretary.
Mohanlal protested
It seems that President Mohanlal has opened widely after being out of the election in the region, as he was allegedly eager to like a unanimous liking. Incidentally, Jagdish was one of the strongest voices in support of the report of the Hema committee.
Meanwhile, the body of the actors appeared to be a divided home on whether the Hema Committee report should compete with the members accused of misconduct or in the registered cases in view of it. While the accused members in one part of the actors found nothing wrong in contesting elections, there was an opinion that it would be ideal if such members stay away for the betterment of the organization.
For example, actor Saryu noticed that accused members could contest elections as it was an organization of only 500-odd members focused on the welfare of the actors. However, actor Anoop Chandran said that such members are better away and are replaced with people who realized the sanctity of the organization engaged in welfare and charity activities.
