Controversy
In June 2025, a controversy arose around the film Vyasanasametham Bandhumithradhikal when its co-producer Vipin Das filed a police complaint against YouTube reviewer Bijith, the owner of YouTube channel Cinephile. The complaint, submitted to the Palarivattom police, alleged that Bijith had demanded money in exchange for providing a positive review of the film. Vipin claimed that when they declined the offer stating that the film was a low-budget production and had not allocated funds for paid promotions, the reviewer retaliated by publishing a negative review.[14]
Vipin also handed over phone call details to the police as part of the evidence. He further stated in a press conference that complaints were submitted to FEFKA and the Producers’ Association, both of which expressed support for the filmmakers. The incident sparked a broader discussion on social media about ethics in online film reviewing and the pressure faced by small-budget films.[15]
