Singer Suchitra has publicly apologized for calling actor and stand-up comedian Karthik Kumar gay. She shared a video on her YouTube channel, Suchitra Space, stating that she posted the video after constant calls from the police. She also clarified that she will send an apology to Karthik Kumar through e-mail.
On August 14, Suchitra shared a video saying that she should cooperate with the police who want to take over her YouTube channel. Karthik Kumar filed a complaint at the Pattinambakkam police station alleging that he was called gay during interviews.
“He said I should apologize publicly and send it via e-mail,” said Suchitra.
Suchitra said she was guilty of ruining Karthik Kumar’s career by calling him gay. “I’m sorry I called you gay. I don’t want to ruin his career. In fact Karthik Kumar is an ultimate man. I hope you get more films because of this apology,” she said.
“He has come under a lot of criticism for his career and if these comments don’t affect his career, how will my comments affect his career? I think Karthik Kumar is giving me too much importance. He thinks he should focus on his life and his second wife.
