Today was the concluding day of the State School Arts Festival. Kannur lifted the crown. Mammootty was the chief guest at the Kalotsava closing ceremony.
But now, criticism is being raised against Mammootty’s speech at Kalotsava. Mammootty’s example of caste-religion discrimination among students is controversial.
Mammootty said that during his college days, he used to smoke a cigarette with all his friends, and as students, there was no discrimination between us.
But a bunch of people have come forward against Mammootty’s example. They ask if it is something that can be told to school children.
Such people are raising the part of Mammootty’s speech and making huge criticism. Their criticism is that no matter who the megastar is, children should only be told what needs to be said.
But many people are also coming to support Mammootty.
