There was a time when Shakeela ruled the Malayalam Film Industry with back to back B-grade movies which gave nightmares to even superstars like Mammooty and Mohanlal. There had been buzz on these stars complaining to the government to ban her movies which badly affected the box-office run of star heroes’ movies in Mollywood.

Now, Shakeela sees this as double standards because many of the movies nowadays have heroines sporting two piece bikinis like in ‘Billa’ where we saw Anushka and Namrata wearing two piece bikinis but their movies aren’t branded B-Grade. The Censor Board had passed her movies and hence how can someone brand her movies cheaply questions Shakeela.
Had been the superstar of her own kind, one might think Shakeela might have made a lot of money. She worked day and night. But didn’t know that there was separate pay for night shifts. She didn’t even have time to look what is happening with her finances, her remuneration and how it went to the hands of her sister, leaving nothing for Shakeela when she decided to stop working in Malayalam movies.
