Suchi Leaks shocked Kollywood a few years ago. They pertain to singer Suchitra hurling allegations against all and sundry. In a way, her so-called revelations bordered on canards and were in the same zone as those spread by Sri Reddy, the Telugu-speaking artist who accused half of the Telugu film industry of exploiting her.
In the latest instance, Suchitra has gone berserk by claiming that Dhanush and Aishwarya Rajinikanth, when they were married, cheated on each other. This is a shocking allegation, to put it mildly. It is also likely that she will be accused of defamation and not just character assassination. Aishwarya's father is a superstar and his fans are upset with what Suchitra said in the interview.
Commentators feel that YouTubers should stay away from interviewing sensational voices.
In Telugu, platforming controversial voices is par for the course for YouTubers. Sri Reddy was platformed and allowed to run riot for weeks on end. She spoilted the whole atmosphere and even abused Pawan Kalyan at the behest of a filmmaker.
