In a shocking turn of events, Malayalam actor Unni Mukundan is under investigation for allegedly assaulting his professional manager, Vipin Kumar, in a residential complex in Kakkanad, Kochi. The incident reportedly occurred in the basement of the complex, raising concerns about the safety and professionalism within the entertainment industry.
According to the police complaint filed by Vipin Kumar, the altercation took place on Monday evening. Kumar claims that Mukundan physically attacked him, resulting in injuries that required medical attention. The motive behind the alleged assault remains unclear, and the details of the incident are still being investigated by the authorities.
Vipin Kumar, who has been Unni Mukundan’s manager for several years, expressed his dismay over the situation, stating, “I am deeply saddened by this unfortunate incident. As a professional, I have always strived to maintain a cordial working relationship with Unni, and this incident has left me feeling betrayed and concerned for my well-being.”
The police have initiated a probe into the matter, and Unni Mukundan has been summoned for questioning. The actor’s representatives have not yet issued any official statement regarding the allegations, leaving the public and the industry speculating about the true nature of the incident and its underlying causes.
This is not the first time a controversy has surrounded Unni Mukundan’s professional dealings. In the past, the actor has been embroiled in various disputes, including allegations of non-payment of dues to crew members and disputes with production houses. However, the current accusation of physical assault against his own manager has raised eyebrows, as it strikes at the heart of the trust and respect that should exist within the entertainment industry.
As the investigation continues, the industry and the public await the outcome, hoping that the truth will come to light and that appropriate actions will be taken to address the issue. The incident has once again highlighted the need for stronger guidelines and better oversight to ensure the safety and well-being of all those involved in the entertainment industry, from actors to managers and support staff.
