Actor Raveendran has withdrawn his nomination to the post of president of the Association of Malayalam Movie Artistes (AMMA). However, he will contest for the post of general secretary in the election for the executive committee of the association to be held on August 15.
The actor said on Tuesday (July 29, 2025) that it was his personal decision to withdraw the nomination to the post of president.

He was among the six actors who had filed the nominations for the post of president on the last day for filing nominations on July 24. The others included Jagadeesh, Shweta Menon, Devan, Anoop Chandra, and Jayan Cherthala.
On speculations that a consensus may emerge to support a woman to the post of president, Mr. Raveendran said it should be welcomed.
