The dusky diva Amala Paul has quite a lot going on around her! Recently, her former father-in-law came out to the media and alleged that it was actor Dhanush who was responsible for his son AL Vijay's divorce with Amala Paul. Some reports state that Amala Paul has responded to this by stating that Dhanush was not the reason behind her divorce. While all this is happening on one side, Amala Paul is in the headlines for a sexual harassment case that she had filed last year! Amala Paul had filed this case against a Chennai businessman and the Police had also taken action against him.

In 2019, Amala Paul had registered a complaint of sexual harassment against businessman Azhagesan for demanding sexual favours from her, while she was rehearsing for an upcoming Malaysian dance event, in a studio in Chennai. Following her complaint, the Chennai Mambalam Police arrested Azhagesan and another private sector employee named Baskar, from Pallavaram. This case had been ongoing at the Saidapet Court. However, recently Baskar filed a counter suit at the Chennai High Court for dismissing Amala Paul's case and closing the ongoing Police investigations in this regard.
