Music composer and filmmaker Palaash Muchhal has issued a Rs 10 crore legal notice to Marathi actor and producer Vidnyan Mane over what he has termed as “highly defamatory” allegations related to an alleged Rs 40 lakh fraud case in Sangli. Palaash has strongly denied the claims and said the accusations were made with the intention of damaging his reputation.

Sharing details on social media, Palaash revealed that the legal notice was sent by his lawyer Shreyansh Mithare. Making his stand clear, he wrote, “A legal notice for defamation of Rs 10 crore has been sent by my lawyer Shreyansh Mithare to Sangli-based Vidnyan Mane for his false, outrageous and highly defamatory accusations made against me.” He further asserted that the allegations were completely untrue and malicious in nature.


Palaash also addressed the matter earlier when the accusations first surfaced online. Dismissing Mane’s claims, he stated, “In light of the allegations made by Sangli-based Vidnyan Mane on social media, I wish to state that these claims against me are entirely baseless and factually incorrect.” He added that such statements had caused serious harm to his personal and professional image.



According to the allegations made by Mane, he had invested Rs 40 lakh in a film project associated with Palaash, which allegedly never took off. Mane claimed that he was promised returns on the investment but did not receive the money back. However, Palaash has categorically denied any wrongdoing and maintained that he has no involvement in any financial fraud.

Reiterating his intent to fight the matter legally, Palaash said he would pursue all necessary legal remedies to protect his reputation. He emphasised that the accusations were not only damaging but also irresponsible. “These statements have been made with the sole intention to malign my image and character,” he stated, adding that the matter would now be handled strictly through legal channels.

The controversy has drawn significant attention, especially as it surfaced amid heightened public scrutiny of Palaash’s personal life in recent months. With the defamation notice now served, the outcome will depend on the legal proceedings that follow. Palash has made it clear that he will not stay silent in the face of what he describes as false and damaging allegations.
