Omar Lulu : Allegations of sexual assault against a well-known Malayalam director have created shock in the industry. Kerala Police have booked director Omar Lulu for raping an actress. An officer of the Ernakulam Rural Police said that a complaint was filed when the survivor, a young aspiring actress, lodged a complaint with the police alleging that Omar Lulu had raped her.

After the complaint was filed, the police started an investigation. After the Kochi City Police Commissioner received the complaint and filed a complaint, the case was transferred to Nedumbassery police station.

The actress reportedly complained that Omar Lulu had assaulted her by taking her to various places between January and April under the pretext of getting her a role in one of his films. Omar Lulu

Responding to the allegations, Omar Lulu said, according to Manorama Online, “I was friends with this girl who accompanied me on several trips. At her request, I took her along for shoots. However, our friendship has deteriorated recently and we have not spoken to each other for 6 months. And now when I am ready to start shooting for my new film, she is making these allegations. Maybe she has a grudge against me for not letting her act in my film or she is trying to extort money from me.” Omar Lulu

Omar Lulu rose to fame with the film Oru Adaar Love, which received widespread attention after a clip of lead actress Priya Prakash Warrier smiling at the camera went viral. Omar entered the film business by directing the film Happy Wedding, and his films, especially Chunkzz, have been criticised for their excessive use of foul language and objectification and sexualisation of women. Bad Boyz is the title of Omar Lulu’s upcoming film, which stars Dhyan Sreenivasan and Rahman in the lead roles.
