It's been over ten days since Malayalam actress Parvathy has been at harassed by cyber bullies for her remark about Mammootty's film 'Kasaba'. 

The actress was one of the panellist of 'Women in Cinema Collective' session at the International Film Festival Of Kerala  2017.

Hinting at Mammootty's film 'Kasaba', Parvathy had said, ""I had watched a film recently, to my bad luck. With all respect to the makers, the film disappointed me, as it featured a great actor spitting totally misogynistic dialogues. A lot of people feel cinema reflects life and society, so when a superstar mouths such a dialogue, people might think its sexy and cool." As soon as the news spread that Parvathy had spoken against the superstar,  Mammootty fans started trolling her online. From being called a 'cheap feminist' to 'Who are you to talk about Mammootty?' actor's fans lashed out at Parvathy. 

While there have been a few supporters as well, the actress has been facing threats and abuse on the social media. Finally, she decided to take an action against them and has filed a complaint against them. “We are monitoring 4-5 accounts on Twitter and other platforms. Most of them are fake accounts, that’s what people resort to for abusing people on social media. We have requested Twitter to provide us with the details of these accounts. As and when we receive the information, it will be forwarded to Ernakulam South police station, where the case is filed,” DGP Loknath Behera told The News Minute.”

Earler, the actress also took to Twitter to express her opinion on the matter, she wrote, " Cinema can reflect all aspects of the society and all kinds of people. The good, the bad and the ugly. But no! It cannot glorify injustice and violence as 'cool' and 'mass' entertainment. I rest my case."

Trolls have been on a rise on social media and sometimes ignoring them isn't enough. Parvathy took the courage to point out to sexist remarks in one of the biggest Malyalam superstar's film, here's hoping the actress who made her debut in Bollywodo with 'Qarib Qarib Single' will continue to voice her opinion and not bow down to haters ever!
