VIDEO: VAIRAMUTHU RETURNS ONV AWARD AMIDST CONTROVERSY – DEETS
Home > Tamil Movies > Tamil Cinema NewsTamil poet and lyricist Vairamuthu was announced as this year’s recipient of the prestigious ONV award, instituted by the ONV Cultural Academy in memory of late ONV Kurup, a legendary Malayalam poet and lyricist. This decision of the academy was criticised by a few quarters as Vairumuthu has been accused by several women of sexual harassment. The lyricist, on his part, has always denied the allegations.
In a press statement, Vairamuthu said, “I wonder if this will insult me and poet ONV Kurup. I think that the learned jury should not be pushed into a sticky situation. Hence, I would like to avoid receiving the award in between so many controversies,” he said and added that he is returning the award and donating the prize money of Rs 3 lakh to the Kerala Chief Minister’s Public Relief Fund. “As a token of my love towards the people of Kerala and the state, I also donate (an additional) Rs 2 lakh as my share to the Kerala Chief Minister’s Public Relief Fund, in my individual capacity,” he said further. The academy had earlier said that they were reviewing the decision to award the poet.
