Dhanush's manager reacts to casting couch allegations: Fake, baseless
India, Nov. 21 -- A
fter Tamil actor Manya Anand spoke out in a candid interview with Cineulagam, accusing Dhanush's manager, Sreyas, of attempting to exploit her by asking her to make a "commitment" in return for a role in a Dhanush film, the manager has now responded to the casting couch allegations.
Taking to X, Sreyas issued a statement claiming that the contact number used to request a "commitment" was not his. He alleged that an imposter had messaged Manya and called her casting couch allegations "fake and baseless".
The statement read, "As I've already stated on 31st January 2024 and again on 19th February 2025 across my official social media platforms, I would like to reiterate that any casting calls, messages, or offers made under my name or under Wunderbar Films Pvt Ltd are completely fake and baseless."
Manya had also released a video statement, saying that her quotes are being taken out of context. "Recently, a video from an interview of mine accusing casting couch has gone viral, saying that Manya Anand accuses Dhanush's manager. I recently gave an interview to Cineulagam, stating that there's some fake person, and that I am not aware of whether it's fake or not, who called me to talk about Dhanush's movie. I made it very clear that I did not know if it was fake or true," she said.
The actor added, "The footage I provided was an awareness video, but it is now being misused. The awareness video has now turned into an accusation video. I feel devastated that people are using my name to defame someone else. YouTube channels have been falsely editing videos to increase their views."
