Mafia predominates film industry, says actor

Thiruvananthapuram: Mafia and real-estate agents predominates Malayalam film industry, says KB Ganeshkumar, actor and MLA. He was responding to the incident of abducting of popular Malayalam actress at Kochi.

''Other actresses also have faced such experiences. Many have been blackmailed and money seized from them. Those incidents also should be probed,'' Ganeshkumar told media here today.

''Victims were not ready to complain. Malayalam film industry also is gradually leaping into the clutches of underworld as happened in Bollywood, years ago," Ganeshkumar added.

Ganeshkumar also said that there are many things which cannot be said publicly and the matters will be taken into the notice of the Chief Minister.
