Abusive Fans and Unethical Media Reporting #Malayalam

The recent victims of unethical media reporting, exacerbated by abusive ‘star’ fans, include Reshma Rajan, Rima Kallingal, Vineeth Sreenivasan, and Murali Gopi. Each faced the dark side of fandom and media sensationalism.

Reshma Rajan’s Predicament

The actress from Angamaly Diaries found herself in trouble when online media twisted her comments about Mammootty during a television show. Faced with the ugly side of fandom, she received abusive messages, prompting her to issue an apology. In a heartfelt Facebook LIVE video, she clarified the misinformation but couldn’t hold back tears while seeking forgiveness.

The Trigger: Mammootty vs. Dulquer Salmaan

The controversy erupted during a TV show where Reshma Rajan expressed her preference to play Dulquer Salmaan’s pair if given a role with both Salmaan and Mammootty. She playfully suggested Mammootty could take on the role of Dulquer Salmaan’s father. Unfortunately, this innocent comment was misconstrued by Mammootty fans, leading to a barrage of insults and harsh memes.

Rima Kallingal’s Support and Backlash

Actress Rima Kallingal stepped in to support Anna Rajan, which only intensified the situation. In a disturbing turn of events, Rima Kallingal became the new target for fan abuse. The vicious cycle of media sensationalism and fan reactions continues, raising concerns about the toll it takes on the mental well-being of individuals in the public eye.

Few days back, Murali Gopi posted regarding Dileep’s Ramaleela in FaceBook. He quoted “If you have a friend who says we should not watch this movie at any cost, and will not allow even if you are trying to, then tell them that ‘this is the real fascism”

“…ഈ സിനിമ കാണണമോ കാണണ്ടയോ എന്ന് തീരുമാനിക്കേണ്ടത് ഈ നാട്ടിലെ ഓരോ പൗരന്റെയും സ്വാതന്ത്ര്യവും ഇഷ്ടവുമാണ്. “ഇത് എന്ത് വന്നാലും കാണരുത്; കാണാൻ ശ്രമിച്ചാൽ കാണിക്കില്ല”, എന്ന് നിങ്ങളോടു പറയുന്ന ഒരു സുഹൃത്തുണ്ടെങ്കിൽ, അയാളെ വെറുക്കാതെ, അയാളുടെ അടുത്ത് ചെന്ന് ചെവിയിൽ മന്ത്രിക്കുക: “നീ ഇപ്പോൾ പറഞ്ഞതാണ് യഥാർത്ഥ ഫാസിസം. ഇതാണ് യഥാർത്ഥ വിധ്വംസക പ്രവർത്തനാം. ഇതാണ് ഒരു ജനാധിപത്യ രാഷ്ട്രത്തോട് ചെയ്യാവുന്ന ഏറ്റവും വലിയ കടുംകൈ…”

This post of Murali Gopi became ‘Ramaleela should not been watched and will not allow to be watched even if you try – says Murali Gopi’ in few online media. This is shit writing by the yellow sites. Anyway, once again – those actor Dileep’ fans that don’t check what is inside the link started barking at Murali Gopi.

Vineeth Sreenivasan – One of the most favourites of Malayalies. Thats the best way to call Vineeth. He landed in trouble when he shared the video of Mohanlal’s version of Jimikki Kammal. The singer-actor-director shared the video with the caption “Wowwww! Lal uncle’s version of Jimikki Kammal!” This irked Mohanlal fans. How can ‘anybody’ call ‘Lalettan’ as ‘Uncle’!

An interesting note: ‘Uncle’ is the title of one of the upcoming movies of Mammootty.
