All We Image As Light Controversy

All We Imagine As Light resulted in significant outrage in India after intimate sequences of Malayalam actress Divya Prabha were leaked, followed by severe criticism and moral policing. However, critics have praised the film for its captivating story and seriousness despite the scandal. Divya said, "It's a movie and it has characters in it. If such scenes are mandatory for the smooth journey of a story, it must be accommodated. I don't thing that's a mistake. Some audiences misinterpreted the nude scenes in the film." Divya claimed that even though she has not done any such scenes previously, she did not hesitate to play the part." She added, "I have never done scenes like this in any film so far So there must be some reason why I decided to act as in the script right? This won't be a problem at all in Hollywood. What some people hold up here is the nudity in the film." Divya added, "Those who think of this negatively should understand one thing. It is after 30 years that an Indian film has won an award at the Cannes Film Festival. Would the film have been discussed globally if the concept of the film wasn't great? No one is trying to imbibe the idea of the film. What everyone sees as a big issue is the kind of scenes that this character has done."
