Thomas Issac supports Mohanlal in demonetisation issue

Superstar Mohanlal was criticised severely by many people for supporting the demonetisation move by the central government through his blog. Mohanlal has been receiving a lot of flak for making some controversial remarks in his blog. The actor had compared people standing in queues in liquor shops, theatres and in religious centres to those who are sweating it out at the long queues for withdrawing their money from banks and ATMs.

Finance minister Thomas Issac recently supported Mohanlal for being vocal being about his opinion. He said it was pathetic to see the actor facing so much backlash for expressing his opinions through his blog. He added that Mohanlal is someone who has no political inclinations and that his opinions should be respected. People may have different stands about Mohanlal’s blog but he should not be criticised for that.

Thomas Issac said that he has a different opinion on the demonetisation issue but then the opposing views should be safe respectfully. The minister also added that we will get to see more powerful characters of Mohanlal on screen. Like others he is also waiting to see Mohanlal as Bheemasenan in MT Vasudevan Nair’s epic movie Randamoozham.

Mohanlal’s blog supporting demonetisation was criticised severely in the cyberspace. Politicians like VD Satheesan, Swaraj and MM Mani had criticised Mohanlal for his stand in the issue without understanding the hardships faced by the common men of the country.
