Following Tamil Nadu BJP Chief Nainar Nagendran's in appropriate remarks involving Vijay and Trisha Krishnan, the latter has posted a statement jointly with her legal team. In the statement without naming the politician, she called out the "distasteful and inappropriate" remarks from a "person holding a high stature in Tamil Nadu's political space", while also clarifying that she is in no way connected to any political party and emphasising her neutral political stance.
Here's the detailed statement from her counsel listing all the points:
The statement from her lawyer read, "Under the instructions from my client, Ms. Trisha Krishnan, a renowned Indian film actress, I am issuing this communique to place on record the following:
- This is with reference to the distasteful comment about my client, which is circulating in the media.
- My client never expected such distasteful and inappropriate remarks would be made by a person holding a high stature in the State's political space.
- My client makes it very clear that she is neither affiliated with any political party nor does she intend to be. Further, just as my client had continuously maintained in the past, she has always taken a neutral stand when it comes to politics.
- My client wishes to be defined only by her craft and not by any alleged political alignment. Further and most importantly, it is a common saying that personal lives should never be made the subject of public commentary or discourse, and it is expected that persons holding high positions maintain responsibility and equanimity in public discourse.
- It is requested that my client's name not be drawn into matters that do not concern her.
Disrespect should and always will be called out. pic.twitter.com/FmXdIBvAJ6
