Shocking allegations against Omar Lulu
As per a report by News 18, the complainant in her plea accused Omar Lulu of exploiting her sexually under the false promise of marriage while concealing his existing marital status. She also claimed that he offered her a role in his upcoming film. According to her statement, she was invited to a hotel for discussions about the film, where she was sexually assaulted. The actress alleged that the director drugged her with MDMA before raping her.

Actress calls out Omar Lulu
Additionally, the actress claimed that some of Omar Lulu’s close associates have been pressuring her to settle the matter privately. Among those accused of threatening her are Lulu’s driver, Nasil Ali, and his friend, Azad. The actress stated that she has multiple pieces of evidence on her mobile phone to support her claims and is willing to present them in court.
The complainant argued that granting bail to Oru Adaar Love would allow him to use his influence to intimidate witnesses and tamper with evidence. She has requested the court to take him into custody for further questioning. It is noteworthy that the court had previously granted interim bail to Lulu. In his defense, Lulu asserted in his bail plea that the actress had been living with him since 2022 and that their relationship was consensual.
