Nivetha Pethuraj, despite her limited number of films in Tollywood, has established a notable reputation. She made her entry into Tollywood with ‘Mental Madhilo‘ and quickly gained recognition for her acting skills. After this film, she received a series of opportunities and developed a distinct following. However, her career has faced challenges recently. There was significant controversy in Tamil Nadu due to rumors about her relationship with a Chief Minister’s son. Additionally, a video involving her has recently gone viral on social media.
What exactly happened?
According to the viral video, while traveling in her car, Nivetha was stopped by the police who then asked her to open the trunk. Refusing to comply, Nivetha became agitated with the police. She said, “I’m just going down the road. All my papers are perfectly in order. You can check them if you want. There’s nothing in the trunk. Understand that this is a matter of dignity. You won’t understand even if I explain now. I can’t open the trunk.” The incident was recorded by a person who also faced the actress’s wrath. This video has now gone viral online.
Was it just a prank?
Netizens have reacted variously after seeing Nivetha Pethuraj’s viral video. Some commented, questioning why she would argue with the police over simply opening the trunk, while others speculated the video might be a prank. Some posts suggested that the video seems scripted and not natural, theorizing that it might be part of a promotion. Furthermore, it’s noted that the police in the video are wearing slippers instead of shoes, leading to suspicions that it is indeed a promotional video. Until Nivetha clarifies, these questions remain unresolved.
Rumors of an Affair with the CM’s Son
A few months ago, Tamil Nadu media buzzed with news about an affair between Udhayanidhi Stalin, son of CM Stalin, and Nivetha Pethuraj. It was rumored that Udhayanidhi was extravagantly spending money for her, even buying a house worth ₹50 crores. Nivetha vehemently denied these rumors on Twitter, stating that such false news was distressing her and her family, and warned of legal action if her dignity was further insulted, putting an end to those rumors.
Hat-Trick Films with Vishwak
After her debut in ‘Mental Madhilo‘, Nivetha added another hit to her credit with ‘Chitralahari‘. Following that, she starred in ‘Brochevarevarura‘ with Sree Vishnu, which also received positive reviews. She has acted in three films with young hero Vishwak Sen, including ‘Das Ka Dhamki‘, ‘Paagal‘, and ‘Boo‘, and also impressed in the Rana-Sai Pallavi starrer ‘Virata Parvam‘. Recently, she made her OTT debut with the film ‘Bloody Mary‘. Currently, she has no new projects, leading to speculations that this viral prank might be an attempt to attract public attention.
