Chennai-based Tamil actress Raveena Ravi has publicly spoken out about facing continuous cyber harassment for more than three years, revealing that the abuse has also affected her family and close friends. In a strongly worded social media post, the actress tagged Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin, seeking intervention after repeated complaints failed to stop the harassment.
Raveena stated that despite approaching law enforcement and filing formal police complaints, the abuse has continued through anonymous accounts, causing prolonged emotional and psychological distress.
Multiple Fake Accounts and False Allegations
In her post, Raveena described what she called a systematic harassment campaign, allegedly carried out by an individual operating multiple fake social media profiles. According to the actress, the perpetrator has sent offensive messages and circulated fabricated narratives involving alleged meetings and relationships.
She stressed that the harassment is not limited to her alone, claiming that several other women, including fellow actresses, have faced similar targeting by the same individual. The most disturbing aspect, she added, is that the abuse has extended to her family members and friends, exposing them to unwanted messages and mental trauma.
