Director Ashwin Saravanan had made a successful debut in Tamil cinema in 2015 with the movie Maya starring lady superstar Nayanthara, and last year directed the multilingual thriller Game over starring Taapsee Pannu.

After the success of Game over, Ashwin Saravanan is set to direct a movie starring Samantha and Prasanna, and now the director has exposed a fake casting call on Instagram, and has exposed a team which has posted wrong information, and used his name to make sexual advances.

Sharing the screenshots of a conversation between an actor and the fake team, Ashwin Saravanan tweeted #castingcouch #castingscam (1/3) An IG page by the name of AAA Fel!s Creations have been putting out fake casting calls to a few respected actors in the industry. They have been using my name to basically pitch a project that doesn't exist to make advances of sexual nature. I received the following screenshots today. This makes me both sad and livid that a few lowlives like these ruin it for each and every woman who aspires to be a someone in the industry. I intend to pursue this legally.I really hope and wish the industry becomes a better place for both men and women. Please be on the look out for such fake casting calls. Always double-check with reliable sources and never encourage private conversations with the same. Stay safe. Inside and out.
