Tamannaah Demands Apology From Director For Making Sexist Comments

Hyderabd: Milky beauty Tamannaah Bhatia is furious with one of her director's who passed sexist comments against her. The actress took her Twitter handle to issue statement and sought an apology from him.

Filmmaker Suraaj was interviewed on his latest Tamil release ‘Kathi Sandai’ which has Tamannaah alongside Vishal.

The director was questioned as to how he managed to show Tamannaah in glamorous way. To which he said he believes movie is a business and actress’ are only meant to increase the oomph factor, adding that, that only sells.

Here is what the director said: “Basically, we are a bit of a low class audience. The audience pays money to watch the hero do a fight and to see the heroine in glamorous avatar. I’m not a big fan of the heroine wearing a full saree; if we’re paying good money to watch a film, we should expect Tamannaah to be completely glamourous. If you’re expecting a movie dedicated to art, then that’s something else altogether; a commercial movie should have glamour … because the heroines who have made it big today are the ones who have done these glamourous roles. Boys should enjoy the film in the end, that’s what I say. My costume designer would present me my heroine covered till her knees. I’d ask him to cut it short. He’d say madam would get angry. I’d reply go tell madam that the audience will end up thrashing me. It’s not for nothing they're paid in lakhs and crores!”

However, this didn’t go down well with the actress, tweeted:

She was joined by actress Nayanthara too, who responded, “How can a responsible person from film industry make such a crass and cheap comment?”.
