Mansoor Ali Khan landed in controversy following his comments over Leo co-star, actress Trisha Krishnan. Following the actress’ reaction to the remarks, the actor has decided to file a defamation case against Trisha on Tuesday, November 28, 2023.

Now, in an interview with News18, the actor revealed that he will file a case against Trisha.

"We are filing a defamation case today. We have prepared all the documents. My lawyer will share all other information later today at 4 pm. He will meet the press," Mansoor said.

Mansoor, on Monday, emphasized that the viral video circulated was manipulated and doctored. He affirmed his intention to present the authentic video and additional evidence to establish his innocence. 

The controversy sparked after a video featuring Mansoor addressing a press conference went viral. In the clip, he was seen expressing disappointment over not getting a chance to share screen space with Trisha in Leo. 

Sharing his views, the actor had said, "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."

Shortly after the video went viral, Trisha took to her social media handle and condemned his statement. "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. 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," Trisha wrote on her official X account.
