The previous controversy between actress Poonam Kaur and director Trivikram Srinivas has again taken center stage. Poonam, over the years, has consistently asserted that she was intentionally pushed aside in the film industry and tricked by Trivikram’s words, claims that have ignited debate time and time again. Now, the matter has arisen with fresh vigor.
Poonam recently issued a strong statement on social media, which went viral in no time. She announced that she has formally lodged a complaint against Trivikram Srinivas, charging him with dodging responsibility with political support. She went on to say that straight away after emailing her complaint, she contacted the Women’s Commission for assistance.
Adding weight to her claims, Poonam shared screenshots of her conversations with Jhansi, indicating she has strong evidence to back her allegations. Unlike previous times when she only hinted at Trivikram indirectly, this time she has named him openly. The involvement of Jhansi, as per Poonam’s shared chats, has also brought more attention to the case.
Historically, Poonam’s accusations created a temporary buzz on social media but quickly faded away. However, this time her stance appears firm and unwavering. The Telugu film industry had earlier formed a special committee to investigate serious sexual harassment cases, including the Johnny Master incident. The committee had assured Poonam that if she could provide valid proof, appropriate action would be taken.
Now, with Poonam standing boldly and speaking out directly, the situation is gaining momentum. Whether her allegations will be verified and given due importance remains to be seen. If she fails to pursue the matter further, her future claims may lose their impact. For now, the film fraternity and fans alike are closely watching what steps Poonam will take next.
