On her X account, senior actress Radikaa Sarathkumar stated that Mansoor Ali Khan’s comments were downright appalling. She even pointed out that such incidents, which she called “rubbish”, should not be neglected or brushed aside.
I am so pleased to see @NCWIndia taking note of deragatory remarks made on @trishtrashers by a person from the same profession, which was downright appalling, lessons need to be learnt ,and I think it’s high time we don’t shirk away from this sort of rubbish.

Actress-politician Roja Selvamani, while expressing her solidarity with Trisha, felt that strong legal action should be taken against anyone who makes comments like Mansoor Ali Khan against women. She even referred to herself and the actress and BJP leader Khushbu Sundar against whom such distasteful comments were made in the past.
She expressed concern that when empowered actresses and politicians were being targeted this way, one could imagine the plight of other women.
Whenever men speak against women, strong legal and police action should take place. Whether it’s @JaiTDP MLA who attacked me. Or Mansoor Ali Khan who again has spoken about @trishtrashers, @khushsundar and Me. Unless strong legal actions take place, these men will never fear…

Khushbu Sundar, a member of the National Commission for Women, already put out a statement on X stating that she already took up the matter with the concerned and that action will be initiated soon.
As a member of NCW, I have already taken up the issue of Mansoor Ali khan with my senior and will be taking an action on it. Nobody can get away with such a filthy mind. I stand with @trishtrashers and my other colleagues where this man speaks in such a sexist disgusting mindset…

Disheartened and enraged to hear the misogynistic comments made by Mr.Mansoor Ali Khan, given that we all worked in the same team. Respect for women, fellow artists and professionals should be a non-negotiable in any industry and I absolutely condemn this behaviour. https://t.co/PBlMzsoDZ3

Similarly, several celebs expressed their solidarity with Trisha and demanded action against Mansoor Ali Khan and male chauvinists like him.
We all stand with you 100% @trishtrashers , this should have never happened in the first place. There should be no room for anyone to ever speak like this about anybody. We need to call for strict action to be taken so that something like this never happens again. https://t.co/QR70kY8Sb9

Men like him should be booked under law and order sections for inciting rape and crimes against women. It’s men like this who trigger and motivate those with similar tendencies to act upon those urges. More power to you @trishtrashers https://t.co/cXQ34jDlui
