Menon shared a screenshot of the takedown discover and satirically quipped, “Happy Independence Day to everybody who has a voice.” Undeterred, she re-uploaded the video while expressing her frustration that a Hindi actor was chosen to signify a Malayali character. She requested, “What’s the problem with employing a proper Malayali actor? Are we less talented? This does not happen in Kerala. We don’t wear jasmine flowers around or do Mohiniyattam in offices and homes.” She additional steered simplifying pronunciation challenges by saying, “simply use Trivandrum instead of Thiruvananthapuram – we’ll be satisfied.”

Instead of conducting a thorough study, they chose to capitalise on Kerala’s culture. The portrayal is extremely out of touch and disrespectful.” She also emphasised that their critiques fall within honest use under Section 52 of the Copyright Act, arguing, “We are free to express our criticism. However, every Mallu creator who mocked the trailer has received copyright infringement notices. This is silence, pure and simple. You may have cast or dubbed a Malayali actress.
