Actress Gautami, put out a new blog post on Tuesday—a follow up on the one she shared on Saturday in which she was highly critical of former partner and actor Kamal Haasan. She had written the blog post to put an end of speculations of her continuing allegiance to Haasan and his new political party Makkal Needhi Maiam. The post triggered much criticism on social media, to which she has responded with Tuesday's post titled 'Proof and judgements'.
In this post, Gautami clarifies that she does not speak without reason or proof. “I am surprised & disturbed by the harsh & judgemental reactions from people who know no details about the situation... …And to all of those people who were so quick to judge me – you have known me for 30 years and I have never been one to throw my words around. When I say something about anyone, I do not speak without reason. And I do not speak without proof,” she wrote.
“My reasons for my decision to leave were several and they are strong enough to be irreversible. As a single mother, who is fighting to start life again and build a secure future on her own, I need to concentrate my energies on positive and constructive matters. There is so much in this life that is good, honest & joyful and I look towards that. There are good & compassionate human beings in this world and I look for those people to be in my life,” she wrote.
In Saturday's post she had alleged that she is yet to receive full remuneration for the work she did as costume designer of films produced by Kamal Haasan's Raajkamal Films International. And she wrote that this was her only source of income.
