What is fueling the recent #MeToo movement in Malayalam cinema in India?
A probe panel's report has exposed widespread sexual abuse in the industry, leading more women to come forward with their allegations.
A series of sexual misconduct allegations has shaken the film industry in Kerala, India’s southern state, sparking numerous police cases and prompting widespread demands for accountability within Mollywood.
The latest surge of the #MeToo movement, which initially began in 2017, resurfaced after the findings of an inquiry by the government-appointed Hema Committee were released on August 19. The investigation addressed issues faced by both men and women in the film industry and revealed widespread sexual abuse along with other workplace violations affecting women in the Malayalam film industry. Malayalam is the primary language spoken in Kerala.
