A
few
days
ago,
Sruthi
Hariharan
accused
the
veteran
actor
Arjun
of
sexual
misconduct
and
claimed
that
he
had
touched
her
without
her
permission
while
shooting
for
Nibunan.
She
had
also
stated
that
the
star's
intentions
were
'anything
but
professional'.
As
expected,
this
ruffled
a
few
feathers
and
created
a
great
deal
of
buzz
in
the
industry.
This
revelation
also
indicated
that
the
#MeToo
campaign
had
hit
Sandalwood.
Now,
just
days
after
the
controversy
rocked
the
Kannada
film
industry,
Arjun's
nephew
and
the
noted
actor
Chiranjeevi
Sarja
has
commented
on
Sruthi's
allegations.
During
an
interaction
with
TV
5
Kannada,
Chiru
said
that
he
found
the
allegations
to
be
shocking,
as
he
knows
what
type
of
a
person
Arjun
is
in
real
life.
He
went
on
to
add
that
the
'Action
King'
has
been
in
the
industry
for
over
30
years
and
indicated
that
the
actress
was
trying
to
'spoil'
his
image.
Lashing
out
at
Sruthi,
the
Amma
I
Love
You
star
said
that
she
did
not
provide
any
evidence
to
back
her
claims.
Chiranjeevi
Sarja
also
asked
the
Solo
star
to
prove
the
allegations
levelled
by
her
against
Arjun.
Needless
to
say,
this
is
a
developing
situation
and
it'll
be
interesting
to
see
what
happens
next.
In
case
you
did
not
know
as
a
part
of
the
#MeToo
campaign,
women
are
naming
and
shaming
sexual
predators.
So
far,
besides
Arjun,
the
likes
of
Radha
Ravi
and
Vairamuthu
have
been
accused
of
inappropriate
behaviour.
