Abhilash Pillai discusses the support received from Saiju Kurup amidst the ongoing Sumathi Valavu movie controversy. The writer clarifies the financial allegations made by producer Murali Kunnumpurath.

In this exclusive footage captured by BTF Productions, scriptwriter Abhilash Pillai offers a detailed rebuttal to the recent allegations surrounding the production of Sumathi Valavu. Addressing the media in Kochi, Pillai reveals a significant gesture of solidarity from actor Saiju Kurup, who reportedly declined his remuneration to assist the production team during a period of financial ambiguity.

The controversy intensified after producer Murali Kunnumpurath released an emotional video alleging a loss of ₹7 crore and accusing the creative team of betrayal. Abhilash Pillai dismantles these claims by highlighting the industry support he has received, specifically citing Saiju Kurup’s willingness to prioritize the film’s stability over personal gain. This press interaction serves as a critical turning point in the public discourse surrounding the Malayalam film industry’s internal financial transparency and professional ethics.
