She also recounted how, after Thilakan's death, a leading actor had invited her to his room on the pretext of apologising to the ill-treatment meted out to her father.

"My father was expelled from AMMA in 2010 for exposing industry issues and calling out the dominance of certain actors, something highlighted in the Hema Committee report. He openly spoke of the dominance of some actors and called them a mafia. The report reveals the same. He was, however, targeted and expelled," she said.
