Chief Minister's mother's name mispronounced; 'Pinarayi the Legend' delayed after CM expresses resentment

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The Secretariat Employees Association did not release the documentary 'Pinarayi the Legend' on YouTube after noticing an error made while pronouncing the CM’s mother's name. The corrected version will be released soon.

The Chief Minister pointed out the error during the documentary's first screening on Wednesday.

"My mother's name is Alakkad Kalyani. It was not what I heard in the documentary. It is an injustice to my mother. People aware of my mother will easily point out the error” mentioned CM Pinarayi Vijayan.

In the documentary, the CM’s mother was mentioned as Alakkandi Kalyani. It is reported that the Chief Minister conveyed his resentment to the association leaders.

The documentary's crew had shown the script to those associated with the Chief Minister before moving ahead with the shooting. Association President P. Honey said that it was a mistake made during dubbing. That part will be replaced and dubbed in Chitranjali studios on Thursday. At the same time, some producers have approached the association office bearers seeking the OTT rights of the documentary. Discussions regarding this will be held on Friday.
