Shruthi Haasan

Being the child of actor Kamal Haasan who was called the favourite child of controversy, how can she escape controversies! Shruthi Haasan has been into controversies about her relationship with Sidharth, fight with ex-step-mother Gautami in the sets of Sabhash Naidu and many others. But the most talked about was her statement about Gautami that led to many other controversies. In an interview, she said ” When my mother Sarika is there why should I call Gouthami as my mother!”. This led to misinterpretations that Shruthi is not fond of Gautami and aslo thatshe is the reason for her parents’ split.

Ramya

Actress and Congress member Ramya (Divya Spandana) faced hatred when she made statements against the Union Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar’s statement about Pakistan. After his return from Pakistan, he equated visiting Pakistan with visiting hell. While she said something opposite after she had returned from Pakistan. ” I respectfully disagree, but Pakistan is not hell,” said the actress. Cases were filed against her for which she boldly responded, ” It’s really sad that there is such a situation in the country today. Politicians want to polarise and spread hatred. Just because borders separate us we shouldn’t hate others”.

Trisha

Though Trish did not make any controversial statement by herself, people presumed things and it is pretty well-known today how she has been slammed by few social media users. Actress Trisha is an animal lover and has contributed a lot to animal welfare and rights. Similarly, she is also associated with PETA(People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals), an NGO for animal rights. PETA India obtained a Supreme Court ban on ‘Jallikattu’, a sport that involves bulls. Despite Trisha’s silence over this issue, people presumed that Trisha is against ‘Jallikattu’ and abused her with memes and trolls. The ruckus had reached the level of Trisha deactivating her Twitter handle and going on a ‘Do Not Disturb’ mode. The actress clearly stated that she was never against ‘Jallikattu’ and would never hurt the feelings of her state people.

Trisha’s recent press release:

“This is to inform the general public that i have been deeply troubled and defamed for no fault of mine over the last week regarding the jallikattu issue. I made my stance very clear on my social networking account yesterday that i have never been against or opposed jallikattu. I am a proud  Tamilian by birth and i believe and respect in Tamil culture and tradition and would never go against the sentiments of my own people who had been instrumental in my growth and stature. But i am deeply hurt at the disrespect and flithy language being used towards me and the people who supported me,by some vested interest. In the  midst of me doing damage control and making my stance clear,my twitter account was hacked and a tweet was sent out putting me in very insensitive light and hurting my fellow Tamilians. This effort by them to detach me from the Tamil audience whom I value much will not happen . Iam very confident on this. Considering the gravity of the issue i immediately reset my password and deactivated my account until the higher authorities get involved. I type this out with a lot of hurt and pain  i assure from the bottom of my heart that iam never against my own people and keep  wondering why anyone would go through such an extent to defame me and put me in bad light. However i thank my fellow colleagues and well wishers for the support meted out to me through this harrowing time.i wish everyone a wonderful pongal and hope this makes my stance very clear,once for all.”
