Why Is Pearle Maaney Facing A Cyber Attack?

Pearle Maaney's Instagram statement on the CJP protest didn't sit well with some of the netizens. Following a strong backlash, Pearle went back to her Ig story and called out those who had criticised her remarks. She further went on and took a jibe at a "failed filmmaker" over comments made about her statement. However, within hours, the actress turned down the story and even turned off the comment section of her latest Insta post.

The now-deleted story read, "My post should have come with a trigger warning I guess! It has made a lot of people uncomfortable! It has triggered so many people that I want peace safety and non violence. I wonder who these people are. A failed filmmaker now writing a 10 page script about my 4 page post. Adding chili powder and ajinomoto to make it as unhealthy as possible."

She added, "Some are asking sarcastically if my 2 kids are safe now. Reminding me that they are girls. Well I know they are girls so? Oh! Blackmailing me to change my statement? U have to first touch their momma bear for that. You are messing with the wrong person. U don't have to give me freedom of speech, I already have it and will use it. Not ur usual puppet. I am Pearle Maaney. And yes my favourite colour is saffron! I think I love it the most on our Indian flag."

While she didn't take the director's name, noted Malayalam filmmaker Sibi Malayil's son Joe felt that she was talking about his father. Responding to her story, Joe wrote, "Hey momma bear that 'failed filmmaker' is my father. Check properly before who you are dealing with. How lazy must you be to read 7 slides? You expect 5.7 million followers to read your half cooked diplomacy and 7 slides is too much for you? Since you made this personal, let the games begin. 'That failed filmmaker' didn't raise a son without a spine, unlike your father who raised a coward. PS his name is Siby Malayil. Go ahead. Do your best."

Pearle has been facing strong criticism over her remarks in her latest Ig story (deleted), with fans accusing her of "whitewashing" her initial statement.
