Adoor made a questionable comment about Malayalam superstar Mohanlal, which did not sit well with Major Ravi.
Shortly before, Adoor had said in an interview that he was not keen on making a film with Mohanlal as he already had an established film image of a ‘good rowdy’ actor.
After serving his country as an Indian Army officer, Major Ravi has also proved his mettle as an actor in films such as Karmayoddha, Picket 43, Kirti Chakra, and 1971: Beyond Borders. The former army officer known for being a brave and outspoken personality who is not afraid to voice his opinion on various topics, recently the actor has once again taken a dig at filmmaker Adoor Gopalakrishnan in an extensive Facebook post. Adoor made a questionable comment about Malayalam superstar Mohanlal, which did not sit well with Major Ravi.
Not long ago, Adoor had said in an interview that he was not keen on making a film with Mohanlal, as he had an already established image of a ‘good rowdy’ actor in his film. He further added that Mohanlal’s on-screen persona was stuck in his mind, which prompted him to take the decision. Now Major Ravi has commented on the controversial statement of Adoor in a long FB post.
The Kandahar actor wrote, “Recently I came across an interview given by Mr. Adoor Gopalakrishnan… I have a few questions to ask… I saw you describing Mohanlal as a “good rowdy” and said that you Won’t make a film with him. Who gave you the right to use the word ‘troublemaker’ to describe Mohanlal in public? As people grow up, their frustration grows. A rowdy is never good. There is no such thing as a good rowdy or a bad rowdy… Mr. Adoor, don’t try to insult anyone like that because you can never reach where Mohanlal is standing.
Another excerpt from the post read, “I remember you saying in 2007 that there was not a single Malayalam film that you liked. Two films released in 2006, Classmates and Kirti Chakra, ran for more than 100 days in theatres. Before talking about a film, you must first go to the theater and buy tickets with the mindset of acknowledging the talent of others.”
“What right do you have to certify that other films are not worth watching because no one gives their money to watch your films in theatres?… This is just a little advice…” by Major Ravi read the post.
Speaking of Major Ravi, the talented actor was last seen in the film 1971: Beyond Borders. The film was directed by Major Ravi himself. His upcoming projects are yet to be announced.
