2022 may have started off as a good year for Ms. Marvel star Mohan Kapur following his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut but the year is ending on a controversial note for the 57-year-old Indian actor. Kapur, who plays Kamala Khan's dad Yusuf in the Phase 4 series is currently facing accusations of sexual harassment and inappropriate behavior after allegedly sharing explicit images with a 15-year-old girl.

The alleged victim, who goes by the username @Nayaaaax3 on Twitter took to the social media platform to expose Kapur, detailing her horrific experience with the actor. Her account is set to private but The Direct was able to secure a transcript of her lengthy post where she claims that the actor attempted to gaslight her into believing that she was in the wrong in the entire situation. Check out the full thread below:


TW: When I was 14 years old, I was a fan of this serial actress & we became friends. Her partner at that time Mohan Kapur also became friends with me. I respected the both of them almost like 2nd parents, & told them about my stressful life. But Mohan Kapur took advantage of me.
We constantly talked until I notice he started flirting with me. Then when I was 15 years old Mohan Kapur sent his d**k pics to me. He was apologizing nonstop & was depressed…. I forgave him. But after that he continued to harass me….
Said things like how he was in love with me, wanted to marry me, wanting me to grow up to be with him, and can’t wait for me to get older so I can sleep with him. Now I know that Mohan Kapur was grooming me.
His partner (now ex) knew the type of man he was…. She was aware that he was talking to me. When I met her in person, I told her everything that was happening. A year later I stopped talking to her after she started gaslighting me. I was so depressed about this situation….
She told me how “I threw my baggage on her”…. I really truly felt that this woman didn’t care at all for what Mohan Kapur was doing to me…
I was so confused & depressed…. I’m not sure if it’s Stockholm syndrome or what but I kept on thinking that all of this was my fault… and kept on wanting to be his friend again. I kept on thinking that he really truly cared about me… but he didn’t.
My depression got worst & I was planning to take my own life…. I kept on calling Mohan Kapur… he ignore my calls… and at times told me to get over it. Then completely twist the whole story to make me look like the bad person… he kept on saying that he can’t trust me…
The last time I talked to Mohan Kapur was 2020 and I was crying… I said I really can’t take any of this anymore…. Hoping that he would apologize & understand the trauma he had cause. Instead he told me that he can’t trust me and the only way he can trust me again is if….
I hop on video chat and send nudes to him in order to be friends with him again. #metoo @IndiaMeToo #MeToo
@mohankapur When I stand up for myself… you gaslight me and blame me for “misconstruing chat” and your reason for asking for my nudes was that you can prove your innocence???!! Does that even make any sense MOHAN??"

As it stands, Kapur has yet to publicly address the alleged victim’s claims but it's certainly not a good look for the actor who is seen by many fans as the lovable father in Ms. Marvel.
