Actress Amala Paul has made strong allegations against director Susi Ganesan of sexual misconduct during the shooting of 'Thiruttu Payale 2'. In a letter, she has stated that shooting the movie was a fatiguing experience for her as the director had subjected her to double meaning talks, misrepresented offers and unchivalrous bodily contacts.

Amala Paul has come out in support of Leena Manimegalai who accused Susi Ganesan of trying to molest her in his car a few years back. The actress has stated that she can imagine what would have happened to Leena by a man who has a twisted set of moral values and utterly low respect for women. According to the heroine, Leena being an aspiring filmmaker would have been an easy target for Susi Ganesan.
