Actor Unni Mukundan quits AMMA treasurer position.


Malayalam actor Unni Mukundan has stepped down as the treasurer of the Association of Malayalam Movie Artists (AMMA), citing increased work commitments and the toll they have taken on his mental health.

 

Mukundan, who is currently in the limelight for his role in the film Marco, made the decision after much contemplation and shared his thoughts with his followers on Instagram.

 

In his statement, Mukundan explained that while he had found his time as treasurer to be rewarding and exciting, the growing demands of his career had started to affect his well-being.

 

He mentioned that his work on Marco, alongside other production commitments, had become overwhelming, and he felt it was necessary to prioritise his health and personal life over his professional responsibilities.

 

Mukundan acknowledged that balancing the pressures of his work life with the duties of his role in AMMA had become too challenging, and after careful consideration, he chose to step down.

 

Mukundan reassured his followers that although he was resigning from his position, he would remain in the role until a successor is appointed to ensure a smooth transition.

 

He expressed his gratitude for the trust and support he had received during his time as treasurer, and wished his successor success in continuing the responsibilities of the position.

 

His decision to resign comes at a time when the AMMA leadership is grappling with significant turmoil. In August 2024, a 17-member executive committee, including president Mohanlal, resigned amid mounting allegations of sexual abuse involving prominent members of the film industry.

 

These allegations, which were highlighted in the Justice K Hema Committee's report, pointed to serious concerns about the working conditions of women in Malayalam cinema, commonly referred to as Mollywood.

 

The committee's findings had put AMMA in a difficult position, with intense public criticism directed at the organisation for its failure to address the issues raised in the report.

 

Mukundan’s resignation reflects his personal decision to step back from a position of increasing responsibility due to the strain it caused.

 

His statement resonates with many who recognise the importance of mental health and the need for individuals to take a step back when overwhelmed by the pressures of professional and personal life. 

 

His transparent and thoughtful communication about his resignation has been appreciated by fans and fellow professionals alike.
