The Thrissur Family Court on Monday directed Malayalam actor Ambili Devi to refrain from making remarks on social media, about her personal life with her spouse and television actor Adithyan Jayan, Onmanorama reported.
The order was issued by the court following a plea filed by Jayan, alleging that Ambili Devi was attempting to malign him.
In April, Ambili Devi had filed a complaint against Jayan with the Chavara police in Kollam district alleging harassment over dowry and death threats.

The court had ordered him to not directly or indirectly threaten or induce any witness in the case and to not visit Ambili Devi’s residence. The court also directed him to not cause any disturbance to his wife’s work and to not give any interviews regarding their marital life or pass any derogatory remarks which would affect her reputation. Ambili Devi was also directed to not give any interviews regarding their marital life. The actor was released on bail after he provided a bond of Rs 1 lakh with two sureties of the like amount, post his arrest and interrogation on July 13.
In his plea that was heard on Monday, Jayan has also demanded a compensation of Rs 10 crore stating that he was expelled from the association for Malayalam television actors following Devi’s complaint. Jayan also alleged that he was falsely implicated in the case after he objected to her involvement with another man. Jayan’s lawyer Vimala Binu also submitted video and audio clips to the court regarding the same.
