Actress Parvathy has lashed out at few media houses for spreading false news about her pay. Parvathy took to her Facebook handle reacting to few reports claiming that she is the highest paid actress in Mollywood. In her Facebook post, Parvathy criticized media for not cross-checking facts before publishing an article. Her post reads as follows -

"To the media,
How about we agree to stick to ethics?
I don't remember ever revealing to any channel/website how much I get paid. I also have not got any message or call from any media agency/journalist asking me the same.
However, websites and news channels such as (filmibeat, asianet news, metromatinee and many more) have gone ahead and decided how much my remuneration is and why I "hiked" my price!
How hard is it really to check facts? Isn't that the most basic of steps a journalist must take?
Is it any lack of news that prompts you to make up stories backing it up by the most disgusting lie of a phrase "according to sources"?
It's another matter altogether that how much I get paid is none of anybody's business except between the producer and I. Also, my talking about wage disparity does not warrant such a move on your behalf either. Wage disparity is a social concern that needs to be discussed. To create fake news of an artists pay is just wrong.
Kindly remove such false and baseless articles and elevate your standards. I still have not given up hope on you.
We, the people, need you to be honest. We, your subjects, deserve your respect.
Deeply disappointed,
P"
