Actress Sanam Shetty faces opposition at anti-NEET protest in Chennai
Actress Sanam Shetty attended a student protest in Chennai expressing solidarity with demonstrations over the NEET paper leak issue.
While addressing the gathering, she criticised attempts to use the protest for political purposes and stated that she had attended in support of students. During her speech, some participants objected to her remarks, leading to interruptions and slogans against her.
She responded by saying that freedom of expression is a democratic right and maintained that she had come independently to support the students.
As tensions rose, an attempt was reportedly made to take the microphone from her before organisers intervened. The incident has since attracted attention on social media and in political circles.
