Actress
Sivakasi
Jayalakshmi
got
enough
publicity
after
her
involvement
in
a
sex
scandal
with
some
police
officials
a
few
years
back.
The
controversial
lady
has
once
again
hogged
the
limelight
but
this
time
for
different
reasons.
Two
years
back,
Jayalakshmi
has
leveled
sexual
harassment
charges
accusing
nearly
8
police
officials
including
a
Superintendent
of
Police
and
a
DSP.
Responding
to
her
accusations,
the
police
alleged
that
she
was
guilty
of
cheating
and
also
of
misusing
the
police
uniform
and
vehicles
to
deceive
people.
After
they,
leveled
these
charges
against
her,
she
was
sentenced
to
a
few
months
in
prison.
After
which
she
was
released.
After
that,
she
moves
to
a
remote
village
and
has
been
staying
there
since.
Two
weeks
back,
there
was
gossip
going
around
that
she
was
to
appear
in
a
seductive
role
in
producer
Anbalaya
Prabhakaran's
film
Palaniappa
Kallori.
Jayalakshmi
refused
the
role
and
was
replaced
by
Malayalam
actress
Shakeela.
Half
of
the
film's
shooting
is
over.
Producer
Anbalaya
Prabhakaran's
called
for
a
press
conference
to
clear
things
up.
He
said,
"The
only
reason
why
Jayalakshmi
withdrew
from
my
film
is
because
the
media
reported
that
she
will
be
playing
a
seductive
role
in
my
film.
A
few
reports
that
came
out
in
the
press
also
said
that
she
was
ok
with
double
meaning
dialogues
and
also
that
she
would
do
an
item
song.
These
reports
scared
her
a
bit."
He
went
on," She
turned
up
on
the
first
day
of
shooting
and
told
me
that
she
wouldn't
be
able
to
act
in
the
film.
I
told
her
that
I
will
give
her
an
advance
of
Rs.
50,000
for
her
role
which
will
be
a
clean
role
with
no
vulgarity.
She
then
agreed.
She
didn't
look
well
and
was
also
not
financially
well
off.
I
gave
her
Rs.
5000
more
for
her
conveyance
charges."
He
added.
"To
my
surprise,
she
returned
after
a
few
days,
returned
the
amount
back
to
me.
She
told
that
she
would
not
be
playing
the
role."
Right
now,
she
is
living
in
a
small
remote
village
and
has
refused
to
talk
to
anybody.
It
is
hard
to
believe
that
this
is
the
same
person
who
openly
accused
the
police
last
year
of
involvement
in
a
sex
scandal.
