"Vipin has taken actions that are trying to tarnish my image. I cannot describe the shock and sadness that comes when someone who has been with me for years suddenly turns against me. When 'Meppadiyan' Vishnu Mohan asked Vip about this, he confessed and apologized. Later, Vishnu called him and said that you should meet him in person and resolve this issue. I wanted to know why someone who has been with me for so many years like a good friend is spreading slander against me. That is why I came to Vip's flat in Kochi to meet him in person. You can't keep quiet after hearing someone who has been with me for so many years making accusations about us to others, can you?," he said in his statement.
