Actress Trisha caught in Jallikattu firing line
Chennai: Well known actress Trisha has landed in trouble with several pro-Jallikattu protestors disrupting her film shooting near Karaikudi down south and some others trolling her on social media, even declaring she had died on Thursday — of an unprintable ailment.
The Jallikattu campaigners carried posters showing Trisha wearing a Peta (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) T-shirt and raised slogans against the actress for supporting the Peta that had caused the Supreme Court ban on Jallikattu. They said her movies would be boycotted as a punishment for her supporting Peta as its brand ambassador.
Sources close to Trisha said the Peta T-shirt picture was "at least a couple years old" and the actress had not come out with any statement recently opposing Jallikattu as being cruel towards the bulls. She had been passionately supporting the programme of adoption of stray and orphaned canine, hence her Peta connection, they said.
In their bid to harass Trisha, the pro-Jallikattu campaigners have gone to the extent of even posting an obituary on the social media saying that she had died on Thursday. The ailment which they claimed had caused her death is horrible and unprintable.
