Temporary ban on Malayalam actor who misbehaved with woman journalist

A day after Malayalam actor Sreenath Bhasi was arrested by the police for abusing a woman journalist, the Kerala Film Producers Association imposed a temporary ban on him.

The association president M Renjith told reporters that Bhasi admitted the mistakes from his side during the interview and hence, only a temporary ban was being imposed. He also agreed to return additional remuneration he had received for a movie.

Meanwhile, the police was learnt to be conducting a drug test to find if he was under the influence of drugs.

It was during a recent interview to an online media that Bhasi abused the woman journalist for asking certain questions that he did not like. The woman filed a complaint to the police, based on which he was arrested.
