Mansoor Ali Khan to legally take action against Trisha Krishnan
Mansoor Ali Khan is rumored to be taking the fight up against Trisha, Chiranjeevi, and Khushbu in court after being denied an anticipatory bail and publicly apologizing for the matter after it sparked a great controversy in the happening.
Khan was adamant and reluctant to apologize to the actress urging that his words were fabricated and manipulated by others as a tool to use against him. The actor was recently summoned by the Thousand Island All Women Police Station in Chennai where he was initially reluctant to go for the questioning, citing health reasons.
However, after being denied anticipatory bail by the court, Khan obliged the police to summon and was present for questioning in the matter.
What happened between Mansoor Ali Khan and Trisha Krishnan
Mansoor Ali Khan and Trisha Krishnan were both part of the recent Thalapathy Vijay starrer film Leo directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. During a recent media interaction for his next film, Khan was asked about his experience in the film.
The actor started to blabber about how he was saddened by the fact he did not have any bedroom scenes with Trisha in the film. The actor went on to spew his sexist and misogynistic remarks against the actress urging that he imagined he would’ve had a rape scene with her just like how he did back in the 1990s Tamil films.
These remarks sparked the controversy which was first reacted to by Trisha Krishnan herself, who boldly shared that she would not ever share the screen with an actor like him. Moreover, many actors came in support of her including Megastar Chiranjeevi, directors Lokesh Kanagaraj, Karthika Subbaraj, and many more.
