The
#MeToo
Campaign
hit
the
Malayalam
film
industry
as
well
with
an
allegation
directed
at
Mukesh.
A
television
director
had
alleged
that
actor
Mukesh
had
called
her
multiple
times
over
phone,
during
the
shoot
of
a
game
show,
19
years
ago.
Now,
Mukesh
himself
has
come
up
with
a
statement
and
has
denied
all
the
allegations
and
affirmed
that
he
hasn't
done
any
such
thing.
According
to
a
report
by
Manorama
Online,
Mukesh
has
stated
that
he
had
stayed
in
the
same
hotel
but
doesn't
remember
having
met
this
particular
girl.
He
added
that
he
hasn't
phoned
her,
the
person
who
disturbed
her
over
the
phone
isn't
him
and
there
might
be
some
misunderstanding.
While
speaking
to
the
media,
Mukesh
also
mentioned
that
Derek
O'Brien,
who
was
the
director
of
the
show,
is
his
best
friend
as
well
as
Guru.
Mukesh
also
informed
that
10
years
ago,
Derek
had
visited
Kochi
and
he
had
requested
him
to
attend
a
program
for
Discovery
Channel,
which
was
held
in
Kaloor.
The
actor
also
added
that
Derek
O'Brien
went
on
to
mention
that
Mukesh
is
his
only
friend
in
Kerala.
Mukesh
pointed
out
that
if
something
like
the
alleged
incident
had
happened
19
years
ago,
Derek
wouldn't
have
called
him.
Meanwhile,
Mukesh
also
vouched
his
support
for
the
#MeToo
movement.
