Shanthivila Dinesh is a well-known star to Malayalees. Director Shanthivila Dinesh says that no one but Dileep thinks that an artist like Parvathy Thiruvoth cannot be kept from the film industry. Prithviraj is a person who can give up to 90 marks in terms of character in contemporary Malayalam cinema. If you can’t read a script at all, he’ll tell you straight in the face. But it won’t last five years like Dileep. Dileep will not say that it is not possible. When I asked Dileep about this, he said that I don’t know how to say no to someone. But Prithviraj has no hesitation in saying no. Kalabhavan Mani was the first film I did. I avoided him when he was rude to me. Lal was replaced. If this power group was there then, would Dileep have called and changed Mani, his best friend, and said that it cannot be done with Lal. Shantivila Dinesh clarifies that I will tell you not to go home.
The film has only Vijaya group. If your movie runs you are the power group. If you say that Mohanlal has a Powergroup named after him, I will agree. Because if he decides to make a film by giving him 25 crores, it will be sold as soon as the shooting starts. So he belongs to a power group.
I would say the same about Mammootty. If you want to be the leader of the power group, now Prithviraj can also be told. He directed big films with Mohanlal. The main problem here is that you are branding some people. That incident was nothing like that. Mammootty cried when Tilak spoke very badly at Amma’s meeting. Dileep could not bear to see Mammootty’s eyes filled with tears. That’s when he points his hand at Dilip Tilak and says, “Don’t you have mercy in your heart?”
Apart from this I will not accept that Dileep went to hit anyone or called him bad.
