As per report the Executive Committee of AMMA (Association of Malayalam Movie Artists) convened a press meet in Kochi to announce that Dileep has officially resigned from the organization. Accordingly Mohanlal told media “He called Dileep and requested him to resign, he did. We accepted the resignation”. Furthermore while addressing the media, Mohanlal also decided to use the opportunity to express his disappointment at being 'unfairly targeted in the Dileep issue'.
He said "He is not satisfied and he was never involved in this and he doesn’t believe he needs to get abused the way he had been getting abused. Surely, he doesn’t deserve these fingers that are pointed at him as he is also an individual”. Further Mohanlal has been on the receiving end of criticism for failing to act promptly in the Dileep issue and however, contrary to his claims, most criticism has been directed at his actions as the president of AMMA, the chair he currently occupies and not at him personally.
Further in the October 12th press meet held by actors Revathy, Parvathy and Padmapriya, WCC had made it clear that they had no faith in the leadership of AMMA. Earlier on Monday, AMMA secretary Siddique had also said that Dileep had resigned on October 10th and Siddique had went on to allege that he suspected WCC press meet on October 13th was called in a hurry as the women members knew that Dileep had already resigned.
