Vinayakan is one of the most handsome men I’ve ever met, says Rajisha Vijayan

The Kochi Corporation organised a function recently to felicitate the Kerala State film award winners. Vinayakan and Rajisha Vijayan, who won the best actor awards in the male and female category, were the cynosure of all eyes.

Vinayakan winning the best actor award was considered as a phenomenal achievement for it broke the conventional stereotypes associated with the State awards. The jury’s decision was unanimously appreciated and was even considered as a victory over the system and their hidden discrimination on the basis of caste and colour.

While speaking at the function, Rajisha Vijayan requested people not to judge people by the colour of their skin.

She said, “To me Vinayakan is one of the most handsome men I have ever met. Beauty is in the way of how a man carries himself and in his personality,”

Rajisha also said that she would never endorse or be a part of any advertisement for a fairness cream or hair oil. Her statement was met with huge applause from the those present in the function.

Vinayakan thanked everyone for the love and support he has been getting. He added that it’s a lot tougher to win the State award than the national award. It was earlier reported that Vinayakan is in contention for the best actor category in the National awards also. His stellar performance as Ganga in Kammattipadam won him several accolades.

Director of the movie, Rajeev Ravi could not attend the function and in his absence councilor Poornima Narayan, who is also his sister-in-law, received the memento.
