Separation After 17 Years

Seenu Ramasamy, known for his rural-centric films like Tenmerku Paruvakatru, Neerparavai, and Dharmadurai, announced his separation from wife Darshana after 17 years of marriage.

In a heartfelt post on Twitter, Seenu revealed that the decision was mutual and amicable. The couple has approached the Madras High Court for legal proceedings and requested privacy. He emphasized that their lives and actions moving forward would not impact each other, and they have chosen their respective paths.

Manisha Yadav Sexual Harassment Controversy

The divorce announcement comes in the wake of lingering controversies involving Seenu Ramasamy, particularly allegations by actress Manisha Yadav.

Manisha, known for her roles in Trisha Illana Nayanthara and Idam Porul Yaeval, accused Seenu of sexual harassment during a film shoot. She stated that this was the reason for her abrupt departure from the Tamil film industry.
Industry Reaction: While Seenu denied the allegations vehemently on social media, prominent journalists like Bismi and Anthanan backed Manisha’s claims.

The actress reiterated her stance, further damaging Seenu’s reputation.

Criticism of Recent Work

Seenu Ramasamy's recent films have not fared well either, adding to his challenges.

Karu Palaniappan's Critique: Filmmaker Karu Palaniappan harshly criticized Seenu’s OTT release Kozhippannai Selladurai, stating that promoting flawed works reflects poorly on character and creative integrity. Post successful ventures like Dharmadurai and Mamanithan, Seenu's subsequent films failed to make an impact, both critically and commercially.

The announcement and controversies have sparked mixed reactions:

Many fans expressed their support for Seenu’s personal decision, praising his honesty. The ongoing controversies have led to debates about ethics and professional conduct in the Tamil film industry.
