When asked Bharathi Raja was asked about this, he said, "She was an ordinary sales girl in a textile shop in Mumbai. I brought her to act in Bommalattam. She doesn’t know anything. I only taught her dance and acting. How dare she is enough to speak like that in spite of earning in Tamil Nadu and eating Tamil Nadu food. She was arrogant at the time of acting in my film.
