Controversy: Director says he would have raped Mammootty
- IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,July 17 2018]
Kollywood's happening director Mysskin is in the news for using the word 'rape' rather casually on a public occasion.
Speaking at the audio launch event of 'Peranbu' on Monday, Mysskin was visibly upbeat about Mollywood actor Mammootty's performance in the movie. Had he been a young woman, I might have fallen in love with him. Or if I were a girl, I would have raped him, the director said. The flippant remark normalizes rape, says a commentator.
A couple of years ago, Salman Khan had commented that he felt like a raped women after working for hours on the sets of 'Sultan'. The National Commission for Women sent him a legal notice for using the word recklessly and insensitively.
