Superstar goondaism rules the film industry: Thilakan

Thrissur. Feb.6 (NR): Veteran actor Thilakan lashed out against the superstars yet again today, when he said that they were indulging in goondaism. The superstars who demanded a remuneration of seven and a half crores every year have created fans' associations using one crore rupees, he alleged.

Thilakan was speaking at the dharna organized by the Malayalavedi in front of Thrissur Corporation in protest against the ban imposed on him.

Thilakan also said that it was by using money that some people became superstars in the industry. It has come to a point when the actors and script writers have to behave according to the superstar whims. He said that some people have decided that if there is a good role, Thilakan should not be allowed to do it.

Thilakan also said that he would like to die with his make up on. He is not a person who would be scared with goondaism either. He also said that even though he is not physically well, he would continue with his protests to ensure that the future generations get to see good films.
