Short filmTranscript
00:00Sometimes when I ask for remuneration, they say,
00:02Ramyu, you are asking for money?
00:06I am spending my time in this film.
00:10In such a situation,
00:12I don't know, as a part of the privilege of acting in this film,
00:16now I can ask for remuneration.
00:18But as you always say,
00:19when you ask for remuneration, you lose the opportunity.
00:21It will end up like we made a mistake.
00:23It will feel like we made a mistake by asking money for our job.
00:26So, I shouldn't ask for remuneration, right?
00:29I will get confused.
00:31In such situations,
00:33you have to fight within yourself.
00:37That is how WCC is born.
00:39But still,
00:41in Malayalam cinema,
00:42do you believe that there has been a change in politics?
00:45There have been some changes.
00:46Now, our friends,
00:48people who talk to us,
00:49people who are contemporary,
00:51when they read scripts,
00:52they ask if there is any problem in this.
00:54There have been some changes.
00:56I don't know if there has been a complete change.
00:58It is a topic of discussion.
01:01Some people ask if everything can be done politically correctly.
01:04If everything is done politically correctly,
01:06will there be a problem in the issues of independence?
01:09There are many such discussions.
01:11I don't know the exact answer to that.
01:14But there have been some changes.
01:16What I am trying to say is,
01:17compared to other industries,
01:19our Malayalam cinema is an industry with a lot of changes.
01:24Here, at least,
01:25we can ask questions to these three people.
01:28That is a part of it.
01:29If you go out,
01:31there are no such questions.
01:32That is why...
01:33That is why such a cinema is possible here.
01:35Not only that,
01:36when you conduct a political statement,
01:38you have to be very careful.
01:40Because the audience of Malayalam cinema is great.
01:42Whatever you say,
01:44when you look at the rest of India,
01:46there is such a department of people here.
01:49There is a good department.
01:50So, when you give a political content in front of them,
01:54you have to be very careful.
01:56That is what I said earlier.
01:58If you can't make a trans character from a trans community,
02:02you can send it to a discussion tomorrow.
02:06I have my own reasons why I used anarchy.
02:10I have reasons why I didn't use a trans community.
02:15But still, you can send it to a discussion.
02:18That is why we have to be very careful.
02:20The people here are great.
02:22Here, as I said,
02:24it is an industry where there is a strict criticism.
02:26It is an industry where there is a very constructive criticism.
02:30It is an industry where there is a very strict criticism.
02:35When a film comes out,
02:37within hours,
02:38that thing comes out.
02:39And people are very active in social media.
02:41So, you have to be very careful.
02:43What is your opinion?
02:45When a dialogue comes out, people roast it.
02:47Yes, they do.
02:49There are a lot of people who criticize it healthily.
02:51Yes, there are people who criticize it healthily.
02:53When we are in an interview,
02:55in the past,
02:57people used to come with a lot of enthusiasm for promotions.
02:59But now,
03:01after studying a little,
03:03what is the new wave?
03:05I think, with power comes the responsibility.
03:07When you talk something,
03:09if you don't know,
03:11you say, I don't know the answer to this question.
03:13If you say that, it is good.
03:15If you know,
03:17you should be able to talk with clarity.
03:19Otherwise, you don't talk.
03:21Otherwise, you are misguiding.
03:23There are people who take our words as golden words.
03:25There are people who follow us.
03:27There are people who follow us.
03:29We are misleading them.
03:33When we talk now,
03:35we used to be very chill.
03:37We used to be very chill.
03:39But now,
03:41when we talk now, we are less chill.
03:43We are not that chill now.
03:45There was a big response of Malayalam cinema.
03:47There was an attack by an actor.
03:49Few people like you,
03:51were ready to react to Natal.
03:53Few actors,
03:55you stood with them.
03:57You spoke about their politics.
03:59Or else, Pintu Nalli.
04:01After that, there was a big explosion
04:03which Malayalam cinema has never seen.
04:05In that,
04:07Remy had a lot of losses.
04:09Personally,
04:11in relationships,
04:13in cinema,
04:15and in other languages.
04:17I felt very sad.
04:19I tolerated that loss.
04:21How to get a better answer than this?
04:23I tolerated it.
04:25Because,
04:27I don't want to fight for it.
04:29I only remember that.
04:31I think that is the only sustenance.
04:33I don't know if I will do cinema or not.
04:35I don't know what I am going to do in the cinema industry.
04:37I am happy with what I have done.
04:39My sensibility,
04:41my ideology,
04:43my peace.
04:45I didn't compromise.
04:47I did it with full happiness.
04:49I did it with full heart.
04:51In many things,
04:53even if you feel sad,
04:55even if there are problems in Malayalam cinema,
04:57even if there are internal complaints,
04:59there is a demand
05:01for WCC.
05:03I am not criticizing.
05:05Is there a belief that
05:07WCC activities are not happening in many places?
05:09It has become an alien group.
05:11Suddenly, there is a collective.
05:13Women unite.
05:15They talk about it.
05:17Suddenly,
05:19there is a need for such a group.
05:21There are women
05:23who are against it.
05:25Of course, there are.
05:27What was the response to them?
05:29We are just proving the time.
05:31If there are such collectives,
05:33there will be a change
05:35in the system.
05:37Think about it.
05:39If we have to talk like this,
05:41we have to do it
05:43because of an organization like WCC.
05:45Or else,
05:47there is no problem
05:49because everything is great here.
05:51At least,
05:53we got a space
05:55to talk.
05:57There is no need
05:59to talk about it.
06:01We got a space to talk
06:03because of that organization.
