'Fake': Dhanush's manager denies casting couch allegations, files police complaint
What's the story
Dhanush's manager, Sreyas, has denied any involvement in the casting couch allegations that recently surfaced. The controversy started after actor Manya Anand indicated that a person claiming to be a member of Dhanush's team had asked her to "adjust" for a role, but she mentioned the possibility of impersonation. In response to these allegations, Sreyas issued an official statement on social media, addressing the impersonation issue, denying any connection to the matter.
Statement
'Casting calls, messages, or offers made under my name...'
In his statement, Sreyas said, "As I've already stated on January 31, 2024, and again on February 19, 2025, across my official social media platforms, I would like to reiterate that any casting calls, messages, or offers made under my name or Wunderbar Films Pvt Ltd are completely fake and baseless." "A formal complaint has been lodged with the police authorities in connection with this issue."
Clarification

Anand also clarified her earlier statement. She said, "I noticed that several channels are spreading wrong information about Dhanush sir based on that interview." "Please watch the original video where I clearly mentioned that the person who contacted may be a fake person claiming to be Sreyas and asking for movies." "I kindly request everyone not to spread false news. Please refer to the original video before drawing conclusions."
