Chinmayi Sripaada Bashes Trolls For Mocking Her S**ual Abuse Story, ‘Getting Groped Is My Fault…’

Singer, Chinmayi Sripaada, is known for not mincing her words, especially when someone crosses the line. The singer recently opened up about the time she was s**ually abused. However, her story was met with a massive wave of trolling, and now she has responded with the perfect answer for a troll who dragged up her past s**ual harassment experience. The incident unfolded on X (formerly Twitter) after a post involving her husband, Rahul Ravindran, sparked a heated exchange online.

Chinmayi Sripaada bashes trolls

It all started when a quote by Chinmayi Sripaada’s husband, Rahul Ravindran, went viral. During an interaction, he said that after their marriage, it was entirely Chinmayi’s choice whether to wear a mangalsutra. Reacting to the wave of angry comments from some men, Chinmayi backed her husband and expressed her concern for the male mentality on social media. She was quoted as saying:

“He literally said it in some context on an interview, which has become a tweet. The rage from the men calling him all sorts of abuses – I am worried for the women here, truth be told.”

However, it was when one of the users made a nasty remark. The person brought up the abuse Chinmayi Sripaada suffered at the hands of Vairamuthu and mocked her for not being able to protect herself. The man’s insensitive comment could be quoted as saying: 

“You couldn’t save your a** when Vairamuthu allegedly groped you, but here you are worried for other women.”

Chinmayi Sripaada didn’t hold back and gave the commenter an apt response. She bashed him for bringing up such a sensitive topic. The singer sarcastically agreed that it was her fault that the incident happened to her and stated:

“Yes. Because getting groped and molested is MY fault. Why do men like you have to bring up my sexual harassment episode and my molester to prove some non-point? Just please vanish into thin air in Delhi so that I don’t have to breathe it.”

Chinmayi Sripaada was assaulted by lyricist Vairamuthu

It was in 2018, during India’s #MeToo movement, that Chinmayi Sripaada accused lyricist, Vairamuthu of sexually harassing her during a concert trip to Switzerland in 2005. She also echoed allegations made by other women against powerful names in the music industry. However, her bold stance was not met with the sensitivity it deserved. The revelation came at a massive cost as she was later removed from the South Indian Cine, Television Artistes and Dubbing Artistes Union (SICTADAU) after supporting women who had accused dubbing union president, Radha Ravi, of misconduct.
