Dhanush, Anirudh Ravichander's private photos 'leaked' on RJ Suchitra's Twitter account

In the last week of February 2017, a major controversy rocked Kollywood when popular RJ Suchi (Suchitra Karthik) alleged that she had been manhandled by actor Dhanush's team.

One of the leaked pictures.

The RJ-singer shared an image on Twitter of her apparently bruised arm, which she claimed was the result of a scuffle with Dhanush's security personnel. A string of fairly abusive tweets against Dhanush followed. A swift backlash against the RJ from Dhanush's fans followed.

However, Suchitra later backtracked and said that the tweets had not been posted by her, and that her account had been hacked.

The talk over the incident had just begun to die down, when in a fresh twist, more photos — of Dhanush, his friend (the Kolaveri Di composer) Anirudh Ravichander, and actresses Andrea, Hansika Motwani, and Trisha Krishnan — were shared on Suchitra's Twitter account.

While the images were soon deleted, several people gained access to screenshots of the photos of the private moments between the actors.

Suchitra indicated that her account has been hacked once again, by someone who wished to malign her.

After the previous incident, Suchitra's husband theatre artiste Karthik Kumar had issued a statement that read: “The last few days have been very disturbing for us as a family as Suchi’s Twitter account was hacked. Today we have retrieved her account. All the tweets published over last few days were not by Suchi and are completely false. I personally apologise to all the people concerned as I understand the stress it would have caused them. I request the media to show sensitivity and not sensationalise this. Thank you all for the support.”
