Suraj Venjaramoodu Just A Comedy Actor For Kerala Film Jury!
The National Award winner for Best Actor, Suraj Venjaramoodu, who was in the last race for Best Actor for the Kerala State Film Awards, finally landed up in getting the award for Best Comedian! The actor, who had all hopes in winning the award till the last moment, accepted the comedian award with a sportsman spirit.
Suraj,
who
won
the
National
Award
for
Best
Actor
for
his
performance
in
the
movie
Perariyathavar,
is
said
to
have
been
included
in
the
list
of
Best
Actor
category,
after
him
winning
the
biggest
award.
Now,
the
idea
of
including
Suraj
and
his
movie
in
the
last
minute
by
the
jury
was
to
avoid
a
clash
of
opinion.
Unfortunately,
the
media
throw
light
into
this
issue
very
seriously
thus,
making
the
actor
the
talk
of
the
town.
Suraj said that he was very happy to get the award for Best Comedian too. "Each jury will have a different perspective while choosing the best actors. I am happy that I got the best comedy actor award in the state level," said Suraj Venjaramoodu. But, the director of the film Perariyathavar, DR Biju, lashed out at the jury saying that the jury members are comedians.
It was indeed a surprise for all as Perariyathavar got the best environmental film award at the national level but there was not even a mention of the film by the state jury."The state government supports only commercial films. I don't think that my film is viewed by the jury," commented Dr Biju.
A total of 85 movies competed at the Kerala State Film Awards for the 36 awards given by the State Govenrment.
