Aaraattu
Annan
Opens
Up
About
Bala:
Santhosh
Varkey,
also
known
as
Aaraattu
Annan,
gained
popularity
on
social
media
for
his
comments
on
Mohanlal's
movie
'Aaraattu'.
Later,
Santhosh
became
a
regular
presence
in
many
movie
review
videos.
Santhosh
Varkey's
theatre
review
became
a
topic
of
trolling
on
social
media.
Recently,
he
faced
an
attack
inside
the
theatre,
with
accusations
of
providing
a
review
without
watching
the
movie.
Before
and
after
this
incident,
Santhosh
made
derogatory
remarks
about
actors,
including
Mohanlal.
A
few
days
ago,
Actor
Bala
intervened
and
confronted
him,
leading
to
Santhosh's
apology
for
his
disrespectful
comments
about
the
actors.
After
this,
a
post
shared
by
Santhosh
is
now
gaining
attention.
"Actor
Bala
is
a
very
good
human
being.
From
Aaraattu
Annan," Santhosh
Varki
wrote.
Later,
many
people
came
forward
with
comments.
Bala's
Intervention
And
Aaraattu
Annan's
Apology
Actor
Bala
intervened
and
compelled
Santhosh
to
issue
a
public
apology
two
days
ago.
Bala
invited
Santhosh
to
his
house
for
a
candid
conversation
about
the
issue.
The
video
in
which
Bala
made
Santhosh
apologize
for
each
mistake
became
very
popular
on
social
media.
In
the
Facebook
video,
Bala
opened
up
about
an
unusual
matter
that
had
been
troubling
him
for
quite
some
time.
He
took
the
opportunity
to
address
the
issue
and
made
Santhosh
Varkey
apologize
for
making
derogatory
remarks
about
actors'
personal
lives.
In
the
video,
Bala
expressed
his
concern
and
emphasized
that
criticizing
an
actor
or
their
work
is
acceptable,
but
delving
into
their
personal
life
is
inappropriate.
He
questioned
Santhosh
if
he
had
any
firsthand
knowledge
of
the
matters
he
criticized.
Santhosh
admitted
his
mistakes
and
acknowledged
that
his
comments
were
completely
unfounded.
"Before
filming
this
video,
Santhosh
Varkey
and
I
had
a
conversation
about
a
few
matters.
He
shared
his
thoughts
with
me.
Now,
let's
discuss
this:
While
it's
acceptable
to
critique
an
actor
and
their
film,
discussing
their
personal
life
is
off-limits.
Frankly,
you
spoke
ill
of
Lalettan
(Mohanlal).
Have
you
witnessed
any
of
what
you
said
in
person?
Is
it
justified?" asks
Bala.
In
the
video,
Santhosh
Varkey
candidly
admits
that
everything
he
said
was
utterly
wrong.
Bala
urged
Santhosh
to
apologize
not
only
to
Mohanlal
but
also
to
Mohanlal's
wife,
Suchitra,
and
a
Malayalam
actress
whom
he
had
body-shamed.
Bala
also
questioned
how
Santhosh
would
feel
if
he
faced
a
similar
situation
in
his
own
household,
emphasizing
that
such
behavior
is
unacceptable.
Highlighting
Santhosh's
popularity
as
a
viral
figure,
Bala
pointed
out
that
children
are
exposed
to
his
actions.
He
asked
Santhosh
if
he
considered
the
impact
on
his
own
mother.
Aaraattu
Annan
candidly
admitted
his
errors,
realizing
that
everything
he
said
was
wrong,
and
extended
an
apology
to
everyone
involved.
