Actress and Women in Cinema Collective (WCC) member Parvathy Thiruvothu has expressed her regret for 'liking' the Instagram post of rapper Vedan (Hirandas Murali) who is facing sexual harassment charges. Parvathy issued apology through her Instagram page.

The actress stated that she had liked Vedan's apology post with the thought that many men don't even acknowledge that they were at fault. Earlier, several film personalities, including Parvathy, received flak on social media for liking Vedan's post.

'I apologise sincerely to the survivors who have so bravely spoken up against the accused singer Vedan. I had liked his apology post with the thought that many men don't even acknowledge that they were at fault. I know clearly that it is not something to celebrate. I truly believe that it’s of paramount importance that the survivors be respected as they go forth with the case. However, I removed my “like” as soon as I got to know that a few survivors said the apology was not a sincere one.

I stand corrected. Whether to forgive and how to heal is always the right of the survivor and I’ll only always stand by them.

I would like to apologise if you felt let down by me,' Parvathy wrote on Instagram.
