'That family no more in people's mind'; actor Harish Peradi's unusual Mother's Day tribute

It is May 14 today. The day when actors and elite personalities flood social media spaces with beautiful pictures of their mothers. A small caption is larded to make the images exude life. “ Happy Mother’s Day”. Actor Mohanlal, Prithviraj, and politician Rahul Gandhi were the big names who poured wishes sharing images on this special day.

However, breaking the norms comes the usual rebel within the movie world, Harish Peradi. The actor didn’t use his mother's image but took veteran political K R Gowriamma's to express his love for motherhood. The caption was not any quotidian “Happy Mother's Day” but some scribbles to take an implicit dig at CPM.

“ This is Mother, who tried questioning the male hegemony in society, who cultivated a pack of admirers for her sheer audacity to do things right. She was ousted from the political party to which she gave her soul. The move made the people ditch that political family from minds”
