Shriya "Skirts" the trouble!!!!

It does not pay to appear in skimpy clothes in Tamil Nadu. That is for sure.
You have any doubts? Then, ask 'Sivaji' heroine, Shriya . The poor girl would nod her head in vigorous agreement.

The commotion is all about an 'indiscretion' Shriya committed the other day. The occasion was the function to mark the silver jubilee of the Rajnikant-Shriya starrer ‘Sivaji - The Boss’, in Chennai.

Shriya's cardinal mistake- to have appeared in a mini skirt with a plunging neckline. Among the august audience was super star Rajnikant and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M . Karunanidhi, actors, directors and producers.
If they were horrified, they did not show it. But an activist of the Hindu Makkal Katchi thought otherwise.

The outraged worker filed a complaint with the police. His charge- Shirya's dress militated against 'Hindu culture' and hurt the sentiments of Hindus.

But full credit to Shriya. Aware of the fate that befell Khushboo , Suhasini , Shilpa Shetty and Reema Sen , Ms. Shriya Saran promptly tendered an apology.

Her explanation was: She came to the Chennai function straight from a shooting schedule for her Hindi film, 'Mission Istanbul' in Hyderabad. As she was getting late, she did not have the time to change her dress. Hence the lapse.

Let us hope now that with the apology in place, the activist would be pacified.
