The Malayalam film industry is engulfed in a second MeToo movement following the release of the Hema Committee report, which detailed rampant sexual harassment and poor working conditions for women. High-profile figures, including actors Mukesh and Jayasurya, face police complaints after allegations of both verbal and physical abuse surfaced. The report, which has prompted the resignation of the entire executive committee of the Association of Malayalam Movie Artists (AMMA), underscores the systemic issues women face in Mollywood. Several actresses have come forward with allegations against male industry veterans, leading to increased scrutiny and calls for accountability. Despite the outrage, some accused, like Mukesh, claim the allegations are politically motivated. The revelations have sparked a demand for reform and greater protections for women in the industry.
