Harisree Ashokan said that he tried warning him when the incident happened for the first time. "At first, I warned him and cautioned him to be careful and not repeat the act. But he just didn't bother to listen to me. He stomped on me again. This time around, I stopped him. I told him, "Don't do it. If you touch me again, you will not go back to Madras". This actor called Mansoor Ali Khan has no sense of what he is doing."
