Ranjith is a very well-known director to Malayalees. He says that Pinarayi Vijayan is a person he has a lot of love and respect for. He also told Indian Express about Bheeman Raghu standing up at the ceremony. If he says ‘Raghu sit there’, he becomes a person, so the spot does not make anyone a person. He’s been a clown for a long time, just having muscle, someone we’ve been killing for a long time. The man is a fool.
A friend once said, Raghu that no one can subjugate you with strength and intelligence. He replied that it could not be done by power, he did not understand how it could be done by intelligence. Immediately our friend said that you didn’t understand that I was joking. Ranjith says that Pulli didn’t understand even that. Ranjith’s answer to the question why there were alpha male versions of his characters was like this.
Alpha male characters are sometimes due to the circumstances I grew up in. My uncles and relatives whom I have seen since childhood have influenced me. I grew up with male supremacy. There are also stay-at-home mothers. This may have influenced me. People who have lived with me know whether I am that kind of person, I can’t say that – said Ranjith. Ranjith also says that there were women’s films in the sixties. This time cannot be called that time. There have been films of great revolutionary nature in the past.
