During the media interaction, Mansoor expressed regret over not having a “bedroom scene” with Trisha in the film and made mention of performing numerous “rape scenes” in the past. Trisha, visibly disturbed by the comments, used X (formerly Twitter) as a platform to address the issue and strongly condemn the misogynistic remarks.
In her response, Trisha stated, “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.”
The incident not only highlights the need for respect and professionalism within the entertainment industry but also underscores the importance of addressing and calling out inappropriate behavior. Trisha’s response serves as a powerful statement against misogyny and sets a precedent for holding individuals accountable for their actions and words.
As the conversation around gender sensitivity in the film industry continues to gain momentum, incidents like these emphasize the collective responsibility to foster an inclusive and respectful environment for all professionals, irrespective of gender. Trisha’s stance reflects a growing intolerance for derogatory comments and sends a clear message that such behavior will not be tolerated.
