Mohanlal Faces Online Threats and Boycott Calls for Malaikkottai Vaaliban for Not Attending Ayodhya Ram Mandir Event (Watch Video)
Mohanlal received an invitation for the inauguration ceremony of the Ram Mandir on January 22 but chose not to attend, sparking significant reactions on social media. This decision has led to calls for boycotting his upcoming film.
Mohanlal was invited to the Pran Pratishtha event in Ayodhya, held for the consecration of the Ram idol on Monday, 22 January. The ceremony witnessed the presence of Bollywood icons such as Amitabh Bachchan, Rajkumar Hirani and South Indian film industry luminaries like Rajinikanth, Chiranjeevi, and Pawan Kalyan. What piqued the interest of netizens was Mohanlal's decision not to participate, given his Kerala background, which is not conventionally aligned with right-wing ideologies. Subsequently, some supporters of the Ram temple criticised Mohanlal for his absence, expressing dissatisfaction with his choice to skip the ceremony. Unfortunately, this discontent spilled over into online abuse directed at the actor, coinciding with the anticipation surrounding his upcoming film, Malaikottai Vaaliban, directed by Lijo Jose Pellissery. Disturbingly, comments ranged from threats to boycott Mohanlal's movies to others expressing support for the actor's decision not to attend the Ayodhya ceremony.
