Actor Bala’s ex-wife Elizabeth says ‘he’d be responsible if she dies’ in video from hospital
The entertainment industry has often been plagued by allegations of domestic violence, and the latest case to make headlines involves Malayalam and Tamil film actor Bala. His former wife, Dr. Elizabeth Udayan, has come forward with shocking allegations of physical abuse and emotional trauma, and has even posted a video from her hospital bed, claiming that if she were to die, her ex-husband would be fully responsible.
The video, which has been widely shared on social media, shows Elizabeth lying on a hospital bed with a tube inserted in her nose. In a frail and weak voice, she says, “If I die now, that person will be fully responsible. I don’t want to die, but if I do, it will be because of him.”
The video has sparked widespread outrage and concern for Elizabeth’s well-being, with many fans and fellow celebrities expressing their support for her. The allegations against Bala have also raised questions about the lack of support systems for victims of domestic violence in the entertainment industry.
Elizabeth, a doctor by profession, had been married to Bala for several years before the couple separated. She has accused him of physical and emotional abuse, stating that he would often beat her and make her feel worthless. She has also alleged that he would frequently threaten to harm her and her family if she did not comply with his demands.
The allegations against Bala are not new, and there have been several instances in the past where he has been accused of similar behavior. In 2019, a case was filed against him under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, but it was later withdrawn.
Elizabeth’s video has sparked a new wave of outrage against Bala, with many calling for him to be held accountable for his actions. The incident has also raised questions about the lack of support systems for victims of domestic violence in the entertainment industry.
The Malayalam film industry, in particular, has been plagued by allegations of sexual harassment and physical abuse in recent years. In 2018, several actresses accused director and producer, Rajeev Ravi, of physical and sexual harassment. The incident sparked widespread outrage and led to Ravi being banned from working in the industry.
In recent years, there have been several initiatives to promote awareness about domestic violence and support victims of abuse. The Kerala government has launched several schemes to support victims of domestic violence, including a helpline and a network of support centers.
Despite these initiatives, many victims of domestic violence continue to face significant challenges in seeking help and support. The entertainment industry, in particular, has been criticized for its lack of support systems for victims of domestic violence.
The case of Elizabeth and Bala is a stark reminder of the need for greater support and awareness about domestic violence. It is essential that the entertainment industry takes concrete steps to address this issue and provide support to victims of abuse.
In the meantime, fans and fellow celebrities have come out in support of Elizabeth, calling for her to receive the support and care she needs. The hashtag #StandWithElizabeth is trending on social media, with many expressing their solidarity with her.
The case of Elizabeth and Bala is a sobering reminder of the devastating impact of domestic violence on victims and their families. It is essential that we work together to create a society that is free from domestic violence and supports those who have experienced it.
