Actor Mansoor Ali Khan has been making headlines recently but not for good reasons. He faced severe backlash after his sexist remarks about his 'Leo' co-star Trisha in a press meet. The actress strongly condemned his comments on social media right after it.

Many celebrities stood with Trisha and slammed the demeaning statement made by Mansoor including Lokesh Kanagaraj, Megastar Chiranjeevi, Khushbu and many others. The South Indian Artistes' Association insisted that Mansoor must apologise publicly and the police filed a case against him as per the recommendation of the National Commission for Women.

Following this, Mansoor Ali Khan apologised to Trisha in the media and the actress advised not to take action against him. Now, the hot news is that Mansoor Ali Khan has registered a defamation lawsuit demanding Rs 1 crore in the Madras High Court against Trisha, Chiranjeevi and Khushbu. This incident has caused a stir in the film industry.

In his suit, Mansoor said that the three of them impaired his reputation by accusing him without independently confirming or assessing the accuracy of his statement. Additionally, he stated that he had not made any personal remarks, but had only spoken regarding the negative roles he had portrayed.
