Actor Ramesh Pisharody has approached the Ernakulam Munsiff Court over a case linked to the AMMA ad-hoc committee, saying his inclusion in the matter is politically motivated. He has asked the court to remove his name from the proceedings.
The development brings fresh attention to a legal dispute involving AMMA, the Malayalam film artists' body. Pisharody's submission suggests he believes he has been drawn into the case for reasons beyond the core issues under review.
As part of his stand before the court, Pisharody has also alleged lapses by Shwetha Menon. The limited details available do not set out the full nature of those alleged lapses, but the claim appears to form part of his argument for being dropped from the case.
The matter now rests with the Ernakulam Munsiff Court, which will examine his request. The case is likely to remain in focus within the Malayalam film industry as the legal proceedings continue.
