KOCHI: Federation of Entertainment Organizers and Kerala (FEOK) has once again imposed a ban on renowned actor, director and screenwriter Ranji Panicker. The association declared their decision not to collaborate with Panicker until the outstanding dues related to a construction company, wherein he holds a partnership are settled.

This recent action by FEOK comes as a consequence of unresolved financial obligations prompting the organization to refrain from supporting any of Ranji Panicker's film projects until the pending dues are cleared.

Notably, this is not the first instance of such a ban on Panicker. Previously in April, FEOK had imposed a similar restriction. However, despite the ban the movie "Section 306 IPC," where Panicker played the lead role managed to hit theaters on April 8.

Ranji Panicker's upcoming project, "Hunt," directed by Shaji Kailas, features Bhavana in the lead role within the horror thriller genre. Additionally, Panicker is actively involved in scripting the highly anticipated movie 'Lelam 2,' starring Suresh Gopi. Furthermore, he is set to appear in a role in an upcoming film by director Jeethu Joseph.
