Controversies

It was reported that two forest officials were assaulted allegedly by actor Kalabhavan Mani at Kannankuzhi, near Athirappilly, on Tuesday night (14 May 2013). Range officer U.G. Ramesan and beat forester P. Raveendran sustained injuries on the chest, hands, legs and eyes. The forest officials said that Mani was inebriated. [7]

In December 2013, a complaint was lodged against actor Kalabhavan Mani for misbehaving towards customs officials of the Nedumbassery Airport. It has been alleged that the actor, who reached from Kuwait, misbehaved during customs checking. The customs said the actor threw the bangle which he was wearing when asked whether it was gold. [8]

Later the Customs sources said the CCTV footage of 28 November 2013 when he went abroad was examined and it was found that he was wearing the bangle. Hence, he was asked to deposit Rs 5,000 as redemption fine and Rs 2,000 as penalty. The matter was adjudicated by Deputy Commissioner Saz Navaz and the bangle released. [9]
