The latest updates from the Tamil film industry.

Priyamani

A few days ago a very excited Priyamani announced her engagement to longtime boyfriend Mustufa Raj on social media along with some beautiful pictures of the couple together. 

'Happy to announce that Mustufa Raj and I got engaged on Friday the 27th at a close and private function at home!' she tweeted.

Sadly her joy was short lived.

The National Award-winning actress was in for a rude shock as she was bombarded with anti-religious messages describing her as another victim of love jihad for choosing to marry a Muslim.

Angry with all the hatred and negativity being spewed, the Chaarulatha heroine immediately posted a befitting reply on her Facebook page stating that she was not answerable to anyone, but her parents and fiance.

'Fed up of so much of hatred and negativity with regards to the engagement news that I shared this morning hoping that everyone would be a part of my new journey and bless me with ur kind messages..but I'm appalled by so much of negative reactions! Grow up you people!!!ITS MY LIFE..and I'm NOT answerable to any one apart from my parents and my fiance.'

Many fans came out in the actress' support. The couple may tie the knot later this year. Our best wishes to them!
