The Kerala High Court dismissed filmmaker Sajimon Parayil’s plea to delay the release of the Justice Hema Committee report, which addresses issues faced by women in the Malayalam film industry. A bench of Justice VG Arun ruled against Parayil’s argument that the report infringes on privacy. The Cultural Department and the RTI Commission argued that the report could be published with personal details redacted.
