'Leo' actor Mansoor Ali Khan was recently reprimanded for his derogatory comment against 'Leo' co-star Trisha. While the two actors did not share the screen in the Lokesh Kanagaraj-directed film, Khan had stated that he had hoped for a "bedroom scene" with Trisha. His comment went viral and was reprimanded by Trisha and several other members of the film industry including Chiranjeevi and Khushboo Sundar. He eventually issued an apology but later filed a defamation suit against the actress. However, his plan to file a defamation case against Trisha, Chiranjeevi, and Kushboo Sundar was denied by the Madras High Court, stating that it seemed like a publicity stunt.

According to reports, the Madras High Court imposed a fine of Rs 1 lakh on Mansoor Ali Khan while rejecting his defamation suit. The court reportedly instructed the actor to contribute this amount to the Adyar Cancer Institute in Chennai. The court also stated that the response by Trisha and others to Mansoor's statement was typical of how “any normal person would have reacted.”
