Thiruvananthapuram, Monday 05 April 2010: Veteran actor Thilkan has decided to appear before the Association of Malayalam Movie Artistes (AMMA)’’s executive committee meeting today to apprise them of his version.

Thilakan, who had declined twice earlier to appear before the disciplinary panel set up by the AMMA executive and was placed under suspension, said that he would be attending the meeting “to convince” them of the “conspiracy” by a section in the organisation to keep him out of films.

“AMMA general secretary Mohanlal has given me a fresh letter and I am going to attend the meeting on Monday. I will decide on the next course of action after knowing their (AMMA) stand on the issue,” Thilakan said.

Thilakan was excluded from Mohanlal starrer film ”Christian Brothers” and a Hollywood movie ”Dam 999” directed by Malayali filmmaker Sohan Roy after the technicians” forum Film Employees Federation of Kerala (FEFKA), refused to co-operate with the projects if the actor was cast in the films. Thilakan had infuriated FEFKA and AMMA, which he said, had turned into “mafia groups” serving the interests of superstars only.
