Director
Kamal,
who
criticized
Premam
movie,
has
been
bashed
by
the
social
media
for
his
offensive
statements.
Kamal
has
recently
stated
that
Premam
misleads
the
youth
with
the
romance
track
between
a
student
and
teacher.
The
trollers
point
out
that
Kamal's
Mammootty
starrer
movie
Mazhayethum
Munpe
has
portrayed
the
story
of
a
college
student
who
falls
for
her
professor.
They
state
that
Kamal
has
no
rights
to
criticise
Premam,
as
his
movie
dealt
with
the
similar
subject.
Mazhayethum
Munpe
is
considered
as
one
of
the
best
ever
love
stories
made
in
Malayalam.
The
movie
had
Mammootty
in
the
role
of
the
professor
while
Annie
essayed
the
student.
Shobana
and
Sreenivasan
appeared
in
pivotal
roles.
Kamal
is
one
of
the
directors
who
has
revolutionized
the
Malayalam
romantic
movies
with
his
exceptional
films.
It
is
highly
surprising
that
a
veteran
director
like
him
publicly
offended
a
movie,
which
emerged
as
the
highest
ever
grosser
of
M'town.
Premam
lead
actor
Nivin
Pauly,
director
Alphonse
Puthren,
and
producer
Anwar
Rasheed
haven't
replied
to
Kamal's
comments
yet.
But
the
veteran
director's
comments
has
reportedly
not
gone
well
with
the
industry.
Recently,
director
Balachandra
Menon
has
highly
praised
Premam
and
the
team
behind
the
movie
through
his
official
Facebook
page.
He
has
appreciated
the
makers
for
making
such
an
interesting
film
out
of
a
simple
theme.
