What did Lakshmi Priya Say to Athul Vlogs
She responded to the vlog with a written statement on her Facebook page, strongly refuting these allegations and calling into question the intentions of creating such a video. Refuting the YouTuber about the sources of his information, she wrote: “Do I also have to pay you an advertisement fee to publish content which is same as what I did in my home, lies said about me? You can write your comment also after reading. One thing I will tell you for sure. What you call ‘pride’ in me, it is not pride. It is my confidence. Not in the back. But it is in front.”
Continuing, she said, “And, to the highest people who purchase rice dishonestly, you can bend but do not break. Tomorrow evening, I will make an announcement. Why such a hatred for me?” This is a statement issued by me, Lakshmi Priya, to the Kochi City Police Commissioner.
The same statement has been submitted to Thrikkakkara ACP Manoj, sir. I, Lakshmi Priya, in the public interest, shall issue a statement tomorrow. Have never lied till today. No cheating of anybody yet. Not deliberately nor unknowingly have I become the cause for the destruction of any person. But many efforts have been made, keeping unpleasant truths aside and loving other people as life itself.No more mind to it. Truth shall always win. Dharma alone wins.”
