What does the Kerala State Award-winning actor, Alencier want?
Alencier Ley Lopez won the Kerala State Film Special Jury Award in 2023. During the acceptance speech, Alencier demands only three things.
- The Special Jury Award statuette must be gold-plated
- The prize money of INR 25,000 (less than $300) must be raised.
- Instead of these things done, he doesn’t want to be fooled with a Lady’s figurine that was designed 53 years ago. Alencier wants a male statuette as the award.
1. What is funny about the award statuette?
Look at that Kerala Film Award figurine. It does not have a face or any proper limbs other than the two bosoms. A woman with no face or other limbs except two bosoms is a sex symbol. The sculptor’s irrational way of thinking about a woman and movie is so absurd! His depraved thinking depicts the society that accepted it for the last 53 years.
It is a shame that no one ever got the courage to say that truth anytime earlier in the past 53 years. With that design, the sculptor degraded a woman and presented as only a sex symbol. How could Kerala reach that depraved level? When you look at that figurine with an unbiased and intelligent sense, you will know that. But the irrational thinking does not permit it.
2. Historical background of social reaction
Once, this was Travancore kingdom where ‘madambis’ lived and Marthanda Verma became a king through ‘hiranya garbham.’ Ettu Veettil Pillamar were slaughtered and their women were tortured and compelled to live in ‘puthuvals’ near the Puthenthope beach in the late 1700s.
This was the country where Sati was abolished in the late 1800s. Then, over 70,000 women protested demanding that they want to continue Sati, the barbarous practice! It takes time for a change, in particular, a change in thinking and behavior.
In the 19th century, Nangeli, a lower-class woman cut off her breasts to protest against a discriminatory “breast tax” in Travancore. She seemed an “unlucky Laksmi.” But today, it seems, many “lucky ones” don’t want to pay the tax. Their claims and discussions prove it.
Alencier’s 58-second speech created a controversy. Every media including social media discusses it as if they do not have anything better to do. They want more viewership for a living. How absurd it can be! Now, it turned out to be a character assassination as if all others are saints in a country with a Corruption Perception Index is 85 which is below Vietnam, Kosovo, and Maldives.

When you look at the media, you can find all kinds of crimes in Kerala. The ‘synthetic generation’ the offspring of cons, thugs, and fraudsters becomes so irrational. They are controlled by local goons and these goons are owned by Al Capone. How many fraudsters, rapists, pedophiles, and murderers are still living honorably in Kerala?

Do not make the phrase, “God’s own place” a joke. Probably it is apt to reverse the first word to align the present anarchy. If that phrase is true, why do millions of people go to the Middle East? Why do 1000s of others illegally come to the U.S., U.K., Australia, and other European countries along with local actors and singers in the name of stage performances, or with politicians, priests, and pastors from Kerala?
Low IQ and corrupt thinking are the problems. When adding a caste system, it is lunatic.
5. The media persons in Kerala need some primary lessons
“Karayippikkaruthu” means, presently not crying. Probably in the future, but uncertain.
“Chirippikkaruthu” means, presently not laughing. Probably in the future, but uncertain.
“Prolobhippikkaruthu” means, presently not tempted. Probably in the future, but uncertain.
The self-ordained, “media persons” and others who carry a camera and start channels for a living may or may not know the meaning of these terms, which are primary school lessons. But misusing and interpreting awkwardly to increase viewership for a living is ridiculous. That is what the present-day media is all about, fool the general public.
We cannot trust any of these untrustworthy fools and fraudsters, hypocrites, and liars. They are cheap controlled products, that buy and sell like inexpensive materials. Most of these fraudsters and hypocrites are living by creating hype and controversies for a few peanuts from Alphabet.
Learn some basic human values
Today, at the New York Stock Market, Tesla’s gain is 2.44%, $18.62 billion. At this rate, it needs just eight days to get Kerala’s GSDP $145 billion. That is one case out of 1000s of corporations. With little money or authority in India, do not think you could smash any poor soul.
Learn to value and respect humans, even if they are poor or helpless.
Psychology of Irrational Theory
Naturally, humans are not rational. Emotion, comfort, and safety take priority. Threat and fear are just a few elements that make it irrational. For that matter, many selfish reasons are behind their irrational thoughts and actions. Let’s forgive these poor souls!
Alencier, we wish you all success!
