phase.
Mohanlal
has
been
harshly
criticized
for
the
poor
performance
of
his
band
Lalisom,
in
National
Games
inaugural
function.
The
controversies
regarding
Lalisom
band
has
been
doing
rounds
since
last
few
days.
The
media
and
the
authorities
of
National
Games,
blamed
Mohanlal
and
his
band
Lalisom,
for
the
disastrous
inaugural
ceremony.
The
Sports
Minister
of
Kerala,
Thiruvanchoor
Radhakrishnan,
even
went
on
to
declare
that
Mohanlal
failed
to
impress
with
Lalisom.
Mohanlal
was
mercilessly
attacked
by
the
media
and
public;
to
the
much
disappointment
of
the
actor,
as
well
as
his
close
associates.
The
actor
later
went
on
decide
that
he
will
be
returning
the
amount
1.6
crores,
which
he
received
as
the
remuneration
for
the
show,
to
Government.
Reportedly,
the
Government
has
decided
not
to
accept
Mohanlal's
repayment
and
Cheif
Minister
Oommen
Chandy
has
requested
the
actor
to
change
his
decision.
But,
the
actor
has
no
plans
to
change
his
decision.
As
per
the
reports,
Mohanlal
himself
paid
the
remunerations
of
the
singers
and
technicians,
who
participated
at
the
event.
According
to
the
rumour
mills,
many
of
the
close
associates
of
Mohanlal
were
against
to
actor's
decision
to
form
a
musical
band.
Mohanlal's
best
buddies,
including
singer
MG
Sreekumar
had
advised
the
actor
that
performing
in
a
big
event
like
National
Games
inaugural
function
is
not
an
easy
task.
But
some
other
friends
of
the
actor,
including
best
pal
director
Priyadarshan,
had
supported
Mohanlal
to
proceed
with
his
decision.
If
the
reports
are
to
be
believed,
Lalisom
has
caused
a
big
financial
loss
for
the
actor.
According
to
show
coordinator
Ratheesh
Vega,
the
lack
of
practice
and
preparations
are
the
factors
which
led
to
the
failure
of
the
show.
