Actor Mohanlal on Saturday said he is not part of any power group in the Malayalam film industry and is not aware of the existence of any such group in the sector.

He said that Malayalam cinema is a huge industry employing thousands of people and the actors’ association AMMA (Association of Malayalam Movie Artists) could not address the problems arising there.

He said the association’s executive committee, under his leadership, recently resigned after allegations were made against the committee following the publication of the report by the Hema Justice Committee.

It was the first time that Mohanlal, former chairman of AMMA, addressed the media after the release of the expert panel report that threw light on the alleged harassment and exploitation of women professionals in the Malayalam film industry.

“Hikers should be punished if there is evidence against them,” the “Kireedam” actor said, referring to allegations of sexual misconduct and assault made against some members of the association.

“I am not part of any power group in Malayalam cinema and am not aware of the existence of such a group,” the actor said.

He also said that the publication of the Hema committee report was a good decision by the government.
