Actor Dileep
A brawl erupted on a KSRTC bus running from Thiruvananthapuram to Kalpetta, after a group of women passengers protested against the screening of a film starring actor Dileep during the journey on Saturday. This comes amid the court verdict wherein the actor, accused in the 2017 Kerala actress assault case, was recently acquitted.
A group of women passengers reportedly protested against the screening of Dileep's film, citing the actor's association with the actress's assault case. Following the objection, the bus staff stopped showing the film.
