Nithya Menen is one the most versatile actresses of the South. The actress, who is gearing up for her film Thiruchitrambalam starring Dhanush and Raashi Khanna, has disclosed that a film reviewer stalked and harassed her for about 6 years. In a recent interview with the media, Nithya said that he called her and her parents from more than 30 different mobile numbers. But instead of reporting him to the police, she didn't.
In a recent interview, Menen was quoted saying, "Those who listen to him (Santosh Varkey) are fools. Santosh Varkey has been pestering me for some years to marry him. He was annoying me by calling from more than 30 mobile numbers. I told my parents to block those numbers. When he attained fame on social media, he is openly talking about it. I have forgiven him and even though I was asked to report him to the police, I did not file a complaint."
The film critic Santosh Varkey defended himself in response to the accusations, saying, "She said that I tortured her by calling from more than 30 numbers. But people can imagine how many sim cards a single person can buy in his name. Not only that but Nithya Menon's mother told me that she is engaged to someone else. But her father told me that she is not engaged to anyone. I was very confused when they said different things.”
Recently, Nithya clarified that she is not going to be married soon, despite what several media outlets had reported.
