Quick Read
Excerpts Celebrating motherhood, this Onam is special for you. How different is this festive season going to be? Yes this Onam is dear to me as our family has a new member. The day will be set aside for a famly get together with myparents coming down from Thrisur. A better cook; you or your husband…. We both are quite good at it. Sreevalasan is an expert when it comes to preparing authentic Kerala cuisine. I am good at making North Indian dishes. For me cooking Kerala curries with coconut is next to impossible, the best I can do is frying pappads.
How does your baby cope up with your hectic schedule? Earlier she used to throw some baby tantrums, but now I suppose she’s getting accustomed to it.
How do you react to ‘Kalimannu’ controversies…. People are already under the impression that the movie is vulgar. It’s a movie that has got a U/A certificate. Yesteryears Malayalam cinema had fantastic scripts with strong characters potrayed, which was widely accepted by the crowd, if so why not Kalimannu. Your suggestions for moviegoers who haven’t watched Kalimannu yet? Before you label the movie as a cultural shock, please do go watch and point out the filth in the movie. It’s about the message of eternal bond between a mother and child.
You being busy with the promotions of the movie, talks are on about Sreevalsan quitting job for babysitting…. No that is absurd. Three months after my delivery he was totally around me and our baby, after which he continued to be a freelance writer. Wake up people....he is not at home killing mosquitoes.
Once Sabaina grows up, if she finds that her birth had lost its privacy, how would you convince her? I do admit that even as a newborn she had her rights. Like other child artistes who make their screen presence at a very young age without questioning their parents’ decision, she too will go with the flow. After all parents will never do something awful for their children. After all controversies, a conclusion you have come to…. Referring to a few, I think Kerala is an opinionated place. People come to conclusions before they experience something, be it good or bad. Few women stooped down with uncouth statements for which I gave no response.
Upcoming projects… 100 degree Celsius, a semi commercial movie is ready for the release. I’m also back in track hosting the show ‘Veruthe Alla Bharya’ Season III. And rest of the time I’m busy replying to the comments and controversies of ‘Kalimannu’. at is taking a good share of my time.
