Meera Mithun's take on Nayanthara's casting
Directed by RJ Balaji, the film stars Nayanthara Amman in the lead role. RJ Balaji has recorded the song Audi Kuthu from this film and it has already been released. Meera Mithun, who saw this recording, blasted Nayanthara on Twitter saying that Nayanthara, who was having an affair with a married man, was doing portraying a Hindu deity. She added that this was an insult to all the gods and goddesses. Meera went on to say that this 'happens only in Tamil Nadu' because of 'worthless' industry insiders and 'Tamil leaders' who stay mum.

Her social media outburst received mixed responses from her followers. While some supported her views, others were quick to point out that there was a difference between 'entertainment and devotion'. Take a look-
Anyone can act in the movie, acting in the role of God is a challenging one and it's nothing shame for Hindu community. We know the difference between Entertainment and Devotion. Please Grow Up 🤣

But in this point I agree with her, you can bash me if you want but this film seems to portray God as a joke imo , sorry

Its a profession dude. She is just doing her job. How she does, that matters not what she does in her home. Holds good for any profession. Pls have a broad thinking about such things. Even we have a personal life and professional life, why cant actors!.
