A few days ago, Jiiva made it to the headlines after he got into an ugly spat with reporters who questioned him about the Hema Committee report.
He said, “I heard about it too. It’s wrong. We had #MeToo part 1, and now part 2 has emerged. Now, people are openly naming the abusers. It’s wrong. We should strive for a healthy atmosphere in cinema.”
Jiiva further urged the reporters to avoid such questions to maintain a positive environment. However, when asked about sexual assault cases in Tamil cinema, the actor got into a heated argument and stated that “such issues don’t happen in the Tamil industry; it’s only in Kerala.” The actor also stormed out of the event after the incident.
