The State Women’s Commission also sent a letter to the Censor Board of Film Certification asking them to be more cautious while dealing with misogyny in movies.
“In the name of freedom of expression, women cannot be insulted,” the commission said, adding, when an actor like Mammootty makes such sub-standard dialogues, it will lead to a dangerous acceptance of such actions and remarks in the society. Actors like him should desist from enacting such scenes,” the commission added.
