Director Shanthivila Dineshippo is speaking against the recommendations made in the Hema Committee report for women’s equality in the film industry. The response is on his YouTube channel called Lights Camera Action. Shantivila Dinesh says that equal remuneration is not possible for women and men in the film industry. He also asks whether the boy who made crores in the film Premalu will get the same reward as Honey Rose. People love Honey Rose. Because if Honey Rose comes, ten thousand people will be added. So Honey Rose will provide the facilities. Can men argue for equality there? Can Kamakshi, who plays a small role in the film, get the same salary as Manju Warrier? Isn’t Nayanthara’s pay more than many of her co-stars? Shantivila Dinesh also asks why they don’t see such things realistically. Shantivila Dinesh also spoke against the suggestion that women in the film industry should not be harassed directly or indirectly through fan clubs or any media.
The question I have to ask the Chief Minister of Culture Department and the Minister of Home Affairs, whose commission report has been closed for five years, says that here in Ernakulam, I can tie the brainless little Manju Warrier even though he is older than ever. Nithya Menon can be tied up, Meena’s husband is dead and Meena says that I can tie up sister too. A dumb little boy. His name is not even used. This little guy is constantly harassing me on YouTube. During this time, at least one petticase was taken in his name. Shantivila Dinesh openly said that I will tell this little boy that he is a notorious criminal. Shantivila Dinesh also makes fun of other suggestions of the Hema Commission.
