Actor Mansoor Ali Khan booked for obscene remarks against Trisha

Mumbai: Tamil actor Mansoor Ali Khan, who recently made derogatory remarks against Tamil actress Trisha Krishnan, has been booked by Chennai police over his comments.

As per a media report, the National Commission for Women (NCW) directed the Thousand Lights All-Women Police to book Mansoor under Sections 354 A (sexual harassment) and 509 (word, gesture or act intended to outrage the modesty of woman) of the Indian Penal Code.

The controversy erupted when Mansoor said: “When I heard that I was acting with Trisha (in Leo), I thought there would be a bedroom scene in the film. I thought that I could carry her to the bedroom just like I did with other actresses in my earlier movies. I have done so many rape scenes in a number of movies and it’s not new to me. But these guys didn’t even show Trisha to me on the sets during the Kashmir schedule.”

Trisha responded to the comments through her social media and blasted the actor who has worked with her in ‘Leo’.

Taking to X, she wrote a long note bashing Mansoor for his distasteful remarks.

She wrote “A recent video has come to my notice where Mr. Mansoor Ali Khan has spoken about me in a vile and disgusting manner. I strongly condemn this and find it sexist, disrespectful, misogynistic, repulsive and in bad taste.”

She went on: “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.”

Earlier, actor, BJP MP and NCW member Khushbu Sundar had vowed to take action against Mansoor.

She wrote on X, “As a member of NCW, I have already taken up the issue of Mansoor Ali Khan with my senior and will be taking an action on it. Nobody can get away with such a filthy mind. I stand with @trishtrashers and my other colleagues where this man speaks in such a sexist disgusting mindset about them, including me. When we are fighting tooth and nail to protect women and bring dignity to them, such men are like a bot in our society.”

Mansoor held a press conference on Tuesday, in which he held his ground and refused to apologise for his statement.

"I didn’t mean (it) personally. If there is a rape or murder scene, is that real in cinema? Does it mean raping someone for real? What does murder in cinema mean? Does it mean they are murdering someone for real? Why do I need to apologise? I didn’t say anything wrong. I respect all actresses,” he said, as quoted by DNA.
