On August 2024, superstar Mohanlal had willingly resigned from the post of the president at the Association of Malayalam Movie Artists (AMMA), days after the release of the Hema Committee report. In fact, the whole association was dissolved amid backlash and criticisms. Many claimed that it did not do much to protect artistes against harassment and sexual abuse. While Mohanlal had quietly resigned back then, he recently spoke about the aftermath. In an interview with Asianet News, Mohanlal shared that he did not resign due to the criticisms faced by the association.
