Actress-writer Suhasini Maniratnam has come down heavily on the particular individual who has been commenting on the ongoing Cauvery issue from a fake profile in her name. In an official statement, she has clarified that she hasn't made any comment on the inter-state dispute.

She said in the statement, “Someone is using my photograph on WhatsApp and Twitter to make his personal statements on a social issue. I condemn him for abusing my rights and privacy, I request friends and media to ignore and clarify that I have neither spoken to the press nor posted on any social media on any issue in the last 5 days and requesting television channels not to carry false information.”

She also stated that the delay in her response was because she was traveling, and that artistes can often be soft targets.

“Since I am out of town it came to my notice only now. Artistes being soft targets cannot be used by public and media to propagate some individuals plan to gather attention.”
