The Chidambaram Poduval-directed Manjummel Boys is currently enjoying a dream run in the theatres. The film has already crossed the 100 crores mark in gross collections and is heading strongly towards becoming the highest-grossing Malayalam film ever by beating Tovino Thomas’ 2018.

However, in a shocking turn of events, popular influencer and actor Prapti Elizabeth has accused the director of Manjummel Boys of sexual assault in the comments section of a post about the director’s film.

In her series of comments and replies, she wrote, “The things I can say about the director and male friendships… oof.”

She further wrote in her reply to another comment, “ He has Whatsapp messages and a whole night of living it.”

When a user replied to her initial comment by saying, “Gratitude has left the chat” Prapti replied, “lol for what? Doing the job I was paid for or for the sexual assault?”

For the unaware, Prapti Elizabeth acted in her first full-length feature film in 2021 with the film Janeman, which was also Chidambaran Poduval’s debut film as a director. Prapti has now raised some serious allegations against the director for behaving inappropriately with her during the shooting of the film.
