Villain actor Mansoor Ali Khan has issued a public apology to fellow actor Trisha Krishnan following the backlash he faced for his derogatory comments about her. The controversy resulted in Mansoor Ali Khan being charged with sexual harassment and intent to outrage a woman’s modesty. Trisha strongly condemned his remarks on social media and vowed to never work with him again. The dispute arose when Mansoor Ali Khan expressed his expectation of intimate scenes with Trisha in their film “Leo” but found none. He also controversially claimed the absence of rape scenes for villains in contemporary Tamil films.
The National Women’s Commission took immediate action and filed a police complaint against Mansoor Ali Khan. Several prominent figures, including the director of “Leo,” Lokesh Kanagaraj, singer Chinmayi, actor-politician Khushbu, actress Malavika Mohanan, Telugu superstar Chiranjeevi, and the South Indian Film Artistes’ Association, also condemned his comments.
Initially, Mansoor Ali Khan defended himself by stating that his remarks were distorted and manipulated, particularly as they emerged just before the release of his film. He argued that he was merely reflecting the changing portrayal of women in Tamil cinema and recognized the importance of responsible dialogue.
However, realizing the seriousness of the situation, Mansoor Ali Khan has now publicly apologized to Trisha. He declared that “the Kalinga war is over” and expressed his desire to have the opportunity to bless Trisha’s “thirumangalyam” (mangalsutra) for her wedding.
