Parvathy said, "The first thought that I had when I heard the news about this collective resignation was, `How cowardly. How cowardly of them to step away from a position where they are now accountable to speak to media`"

Malayalam actress Parvathy Thiruvothu, who recently appeared in the film `Thangalaan`, has strongly reacted to veteran actor Mohanlal`s resignation as the president of the Association of Malayalam Movie Artists (AMMA) in the wake of the Justice Hema Committee report, which led to sexual harassment allegations faced by some members of the executive committee. She called the move ‘cowardly’ for not acknowledging the gravitas of the issue.
In an interview with Mojo Story, Parvathy said, "The first thought that I had when I heard the news about this collective resignation was, `How cowardly. How cowardly of them to step away from a position where they are now accountable to speak to media`. That was the immediate cop-out. Again the onus falls on us women to take the conversations and debates forward and all of it. It would have been amazing if they had at least shown the intention to work with the government and stakeholders and figure a way out.”
