Why is Ravi Mohan going to High Court in Rs 9 crore case? All we know about his fight against production house

Pink Villa6 days ago
Ravi Mohan has approached the Madras High Court and filed a defamation case against the production house of Bobby Touch Gold Universal Private Limited. The actor is seeking compensation of Rs 9 crore from the producers as they failed to commence two projects with him in time.
Ravi Mohan files a lawsuit against a production house
As per a report by News18, Ravi Mohan has alleged that he provided a call sheet for 80 days, but the company failed to begin production. This apparently led him to suffer a huge loss, leading to the lawsuit.
The PS 1 actor alleged that he provided dates from January to March of 2025; during this time, he had to give up other movies owing to his contract with the production house.
Moreover, the contract automatically expired after a period, which led him to take on new projects. However, the producers are said to have served a notice to Ravi, seeking a return on the advance of Rs 6 crore they once paid the actor.
Interestingly, the defamation lawsuit has clearly stated that the actor is willing to return the advance payment, but the production house now retorts and says that Ravi Mohan breached their contract by working in Parasakthi.
The Madras High Court has now ordered the production company to further respond by July 23, 2025.
Ravi Mohan's work front
Ravi Mohan was last seen in the lead role in the movie Kadhalikka Neramillai. The romantic comedy, directed by Kiruthiga Udhayanidhi and co-starring Nithya Menen, was loosely based on the 2010 American film The Switch, which starred Jennifer Aniston and Jason Bateman.
The film tells the story of a young woman who dreams of having a family but struggles as she falls for a man who has no interest in marriage or children. This leads to a series of humorous moments and explores whether she ultimately finds her true love.
The actor is next set to appear as the main antagonist for the Sivakarthikeyan starrer flick, Parasakthi. The movie directed by Sudha Kongara is touted to be a period political drama with Sreeleela and Atharvaa Murali in key roles.

She added, 'I said, 'What do you mean?' He said, 'There is no akhha garam masala.' I said, 'Oh, I don't use it anymore.' He said, 'You have gone mad.' I said, 'But the food is great otherwise as well, so why do you need so many ingredients?'" Shilpa Shirodkar is married to Aparesh Ranjit, a banker and double MBA.

Shilpa and Aparesh used to live in New Zealand, but moved back to India after the actor lost her parents and needed to be closer to her sister, Shilpa Shirodkar. She shared, 'He is a banker by profession, and it's a very different industry, and I have a lot of regard for his kind of work, and he has a lot of regard for my kind of work. In 2009, when we made the shift, my husband was in the best phase of his career, and he knew that I was going through emotional trauma, and I was a wreck, and he knew that it was important for me to come back home and just be around my sister. He said, 'Don't worry about work, it will happen, let's go back home.'" 'The most important thing is respect for each other, which has lasted. Because I personally believe that initially, there is love in any relationship, but it's the respect that lasts forever," she shared, reflecting on their long-lasting marriage. Meanwhile, Shilpa Shirodkar will next be seen in Jatadhara, a highly anticipated pan‑India supernatural thriller that marks her return to the silver screen after several years away. Jatadhara is a supernatural mystery thriller centred around the enigmatic Anantha Padmanabha Swamy Temple and its hidden mystical lore.

More than acting, Vizag taught me to be courageous: Pawan

Visakhapatnam: Two years back, when the previous government tried to crumple and restrict movement, creating a sense of fear, scores of people in Visakhapatnam came in droves to extend their support and give courage to fight back, recalled Deputy Chief Minister and power star K. Pawan Kalyan. Inspiring his admirers at the pre-release event of his movie 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' organised at Andhra University Convention Centre in Visakhapatnam on July 23 (Wednesday) with his 'powerful' address, Pawan Kalyan emphasised, 'More than acting, Vipawasakhapatnam taught me to be courageous, encouraged me to question injustice in the system and help those who were in need even while getting trained under star-maker L Satyanand,' the Deputy CM confessed. There were instances where the ticket of his film was sold at over Rs.10 and Rs.15 during the YSRCP's tenure and despite the hurdles planted by the previous government, Pawan Kalyan highlighted that none of it impacted the success of the movies he acted in. 'But after the NDA government came to power, the alliance has been allocating funds even to the Sarpanches of the Opposition without any disparity,' he asserted. Referring to the YSRCP, Pawan Kalyan said, 'No matter how much ever good we do, frogs in the well will not stop 'croaking' as they fail to understand 'Pawanam' who is 'omnipresent'.' The film industry taught how to fight against the dictatorial attitude of the previous government and emerge victorious with a huge support of the admirers, Pawan Kalyan underlined. 'To fight against such government, one should have a very strong mind along with physical stamina. Martial arts aided me to become stronger both emotionally and physically,' he underlined. Speaking about Sanatana Dharma, Pawan Kalyan stressed, 'Sanatana Dharma unites people irrespective of the religion they belong to. Sanatana Dharma is not against Christians or Muslims.' Sharing his love for the 24 crafts of cinema in his 29 years of journey in the film world, Pawan Kalyan mentioned that he picks up roles that remain close to real life. 'Cinema is beyond region, race and religion and draws people from across the world,' he added. Recalling the challenges faced while making 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' that got inordinately delayed due to various reasons, including coronavirus pandemic, Pawan Kalyan thanked the entire team of the unit for reposing faith in him and making it happen despite the hurdles they have come across.
