"My attention was drawn to some reprehensible comments made by actor Mansoor Ali Khan about Trisha. The comments are distasteful and disgusting not just for an Artiste but for any woman or girl.

Mansoor Ali Khan courted a huge controversy when he rued about not getting an opportunity to act with Trisha in a 'rape scene.' He complained that the filmmakers didn't allow him an opportunity to share screen space with her in Leo.
Mansoor had already highlighted this point during the success event of Leo. However, at the time, his comments were brushed under the carpet.
During a recent press meet, he doubled down and made some inappropriate comments that evoked a strong response from people from across the country.
Trisha lashed out at Mansoor and vowed that she would never share screen space with him in her career.
Despite the growing crisis, Mansoor remains unfazed. He has declared that he won't apologise to Trisha for his comments, claiming that he has done no wrong.
"What is this foolishness? I should only ask apology if I have made any mistake, no? I don't belong to a creed of men who seek apology. I have not made any mistake. These are false allegations," Mansoor said reacting to the controversy.
