Latha Rajinikanth denies cheating charges, calls it ‘price of being a celebrity’
Latha Rajinikanth, wife of Rajinikanth on Tuesday said there is no “fraudulence” in a cheating case filed against her by a Chennai-based advertisement firm in 2015 while calling it “humiliation, harassment, and exploitation”.
She appeared before a Bengaluru court on Tuesday in a matter pertaining to the Tamil film ‘Kochadaiiyaan’. The court granted her bail and the hearing has been postponed to January 6.
“For me, it’s a case of humiliation and harassment and exploitation of a popular person. This is the price we pay for being celebrities. So there may not be a big case, but the news becomes very big. There is no fraudulence…I have nothing to do with the money…,” Latha said.
The Supreme Court on 10 October restored alleged criminal charges against Superstar Rajinikanth’s wife Latha in a matter about the Tamil film ‘Kochadaiiyaan’. A bench headed by Justice AS Bopanna and MM Sundresh passed the order while hearing petitions challenging the Karnataka High Court judgment.
