Hours after it was reported that Mansoor Ali Khan has gone incognito, News18 has now learnt that the Tamil actor has appeared before Chennai police. He was summoned by the Chennai police for allegedly making insensitive remarks against actress Trisha.
Mansoor Ali Khan appeared before the Chennai police on Thursday afternoon. He is being questioned with regard to the insensitive and derogatory comments he made against Trisha. Mansoor was been booked under Section 354 A (sexual harassment) and Section 509 (word, gesture, or act intended to outrage modesty of woman) in the case.
For the unversed, Mansoor Ali Khan grabbed everyone’s attention after a video of the actor went viral on social media in which he said in Tamil, “When I heard that I was acting with Trisha, I thought there would be a bedroom scene in the film. I thought I would carry her to the bedroom just like I did with other actresses in my earlier movies. I have done so many rape scenes and it’s not new to me. But these guys didn’t even show Trisha to me on the sets during the shoot in Kashmir.”
Later, Trisha also broke silence on Mansoor Ali Khan’s comment and called it “sexist, disrespectful, misogynistic, repulsive”. “A recent video has come to my attention where Mr Mansoor Ali Khan has spoken about me in a vile manner. I strongly condemn this and find it sexist, disrespectful, misogynistic, repulsive, and in bad taste. He can keep wishing, but I am grateful never to have shared screen space with someone as pathetic as him, and I will make sure it never happens for the rest of my film career as well. People like him bring a bad name to mankind,” she wrote on X.
The National Commission For Women (NCW) had also asked Tamil Nadu DGP earlier this month to take action against the actor.
