The withdrawal comes at a time when the actress was planning to meet Chief Minister Oommen Chandy Tuesday, to file an official complaint.

"There was a huge crowd, and in a crowded place, some jostling happens. She complained after almost six hours. Nothing of the sort happened, as she claims," district Congress president Pratapa Varma Thampan said.
Kurup, who was also present at the conference with Thampan, did not speak much. He said he had already had a word with the actress and her husband.
