Rs 100 Crore Defamation Case Filed Against Actress Khushi Mukherjee Over Remarks on Suryakumar Yadav

Actress Khushi Mukherjee is facing a massive Rs 100 crore defamation case following her comments about India’s T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav. The legal complaint was filed by social media influencer Faizan Ansari in Ghazipur, demanding strict action and registration of an FIR against the actress.

Controversy Details
The controversy began at a public event where Mukherjee commented on her interactions with cricketers. She claimed that Suryakumar Yadav “used to message her a lot” but emphasized they no longer communicate and that she does not want her name linked to him. The remarks quickly went viral, prompting backlash and the defamation complaint from Ansari, who accused Mukherjee of making false statements that could damage the reputation of an international cricketer.

Ansari has demanded strict legal action, including a jail term of at least seven years, and said, “We want an FIR to be registered immediately against Khushi Mukherjee… Until I get justice, I will stay in Ghazipur city.”

Actress Responds
Following the backlash, Mukherjee clarified her remarks in an interview, stating that her words were misunderstood and exaggerated. She denied any romantic involvement with Suryakumar Yadav, claimed her Instagram account had been hacked, and emphasized that their past interactions were purely friendly. Mukherjee also extended her good wishes to Team India and the captain ahead of the T20 World Cup 2026.

The case has garnered widespread attention online, highlighting the sensitivity around celebrities’ public statements and the growing trend of legal action over perceived defamation in the entertainment and sports spheres.
