'Dileep Is A Master Manipulator; Mammootty And Mohanlal Are His Puppets'

By Lekhaka

It is no secret that Dileep is one of the most bankable and popular actors in Mollywood today. The 'Janapriya Nayakan' enjoys an impressive fan following courtesy his lively screen presence, desi looks and flawless comic timing. A veteran in his own right, Dileep has acted in several popular films and this has established him as a force to be reckoned with. However, over the years, he has also been embroiled in controversies due to his personal life.

In 2017, he found himself in the limelight for a shocking reason when he was arrested in connection with the actress assault case, which rocked the very foundation of the Malayalam film fraternity. Shortly thereafter, he was expelled from AMMA and this added to his woes.

Vinayan also claimed that Dileep was instrumental in his ouster from an organisation.

"I had created the organisation MACTA and we had warned Dileep when he didn't act in a movie despite taking advance from the producer. He then challenged me publicly and said he would make sure I don't continue in my position," he added.

He was last seen in Kodathi Samaksham Balan Vakeel that did well at the box office. At present, he has the fantasy-comedy Professor Dinkan in his kitty. He will also be seen in Jack Daniel.
