Actress
Priya Bhavani Shankar
became a household name after playing the leading lady in last year’s ‘Meyaadhaa Maan’, a romantic-comedy which was directed by debutant Rathna Kumar. Following the success of the film, Priya Bhavani Shankar played a pivotal role in the Karthi-starrer ‘Kadai Kutty
Singam
’, which became extremely successful at the box office.
In a recent interview, Priya Bhavani Shankar was asked about the political entry of two big superstars
Kamal Haasan and
Rajinikanth. She made it very clear that politics and cinema are different, and that she wouldn’t vote for them just because they’re big stars.
She was quoted as saying, “Just because two big icons have entered politics, we can't blindly bank on them. It is not a 2-hour-30-minute film. If they win elections, they have to lead us for five years. I like Kamal Sir and Rajini Sir. I will go to the first day first show of their films. That doesn't mean my political views will coincide with theirs."
Lately, the actress has been getting a lot of praise for her bold comments. Recently, Priya Bhavani Shankar shut down a troll, who shamed her for wearing a transparent clothing.
