Despite these being the weeks when Ansiba Hassan should have made headlines for her role and performance in director Jeethu Joseph’s Mohanlal-led Drishyam 3, the third instalment in the eponymous franchise, the massive attention the actor is receiving has been for unpleasant reasons. Over the past few days, Ansiba has been all over the news after she decided to fight back against the purported attacks she has been facing in the Association of Malayalam Movie Artists (AMMA) for some time. While Ansiba Hassan’s sudden resignation as the organisation’s joint secretary itself grabbed the attention of many, the issue snowballed into a massive controversy after she levelled serious allegations against fellow actor Tiny Tom, a member of AMMA’s executive committee. Accusing him of spreading baseless rumours about her interactions with others, Ansiba claimed that he even referred to her as a “jihadi” on one occasion.
