Shine Tom Chacko has faced allegations of harassment from female actors, notably Malayalam actress Vincy Aloshious. She filed a formal complaint with the Association of Malayalam Movie Artists (AMMA), the Kerala Film Chamber, and the film's Internal Complaints Committee, accusing Chacko of inappropriate behavior on the set of their film *Soothravakyam*. Aloshious alleged that Chacko, while under the influence of drugs, misbehaved with her, including making unwelcome comments and gestures during rehearsals and attempting to "fix her outfit" inappropriately. She also claimed he created a hostile work environment and that junior artists faced verbal harassment. Additionally, makeup artist Renju Renjimar and actress Swasika Vijay have publicly supported Aloshious, with Renjimar recounting past incidents of Chacko’s misconduct and Vijay calling for stringent action. The Women in Cinema Collective (WCC) also backed Aloshious, emphasizing workplace safety rights. However, Aloshious later expressed intent to withdraw her complaint, citing a breach of trust after the Film Chamber publicly revealed Chacko’s name.
