The IT department has decided to auction yesteryear’s actress
Srividya’S apartment in Chennai on March 26 to clear her income tax dues, say reports. The apartment was taken over by the department after the actress’ demise in 2006.
Popular Malayalam actor turned politician,
K B Ganesh Kumar, who is the executor of Srividya’s will shard that all her immovable assets will be sold to mobilise funds to give the actress a befitting tribute.
“Her tax liabilities will have to be settled first and also the bank liabilities on her residence in the capital will also have to be settled before selling it in auction. We will approach the high court after that with a proposal to hand over the revenue from the auction to
Gandhi Bhavan
and
Snehabhavan
equally, the two institutions that work for the destitute and the mentally unstable,”
Ganesh was quoted as saying.
