Tamil playback singer Swagatha S Krishnan has made serious allegations against a music director, accusing him of sexual abuse and intimidation. The singer, known for songs such as Yeno Pennae and Kadhal Kanmani, said the experience had a significant impact on both her personal life and professional journey.
In a recent interview with a YouTube channel, Swagatha S Krishnan stated that the alleged incident took place inside a recording studio, which she had previously considered a safe working environment. She described the space as highly controlled, claiming it was soundproof and equipped with surveillance systems.
According to her account, the situation left her feeling isolated, and she alleged that recordings from the studio were later used to threaten her. She also suggested that the behavior followed a broader pattern, claiming that other women may have faced similar experiences.
While she has not disclosed the identity of the individual, Swagatha referred to the accused using a strong comparison, which has since drawn widespread attention and discussion.
The singer further alleged that the environment created by the individual involved manipulation and control, making it difficult for victims to speak out. She also raised concerns about unauthorized recording practices within the studio.
Speaking about the aftermath, Swagatha S Krishnan said she experienced emotional distress, isolation, and reputational challenges. She stated that she relied on therapy and support from her family during that period.
She also revealed that she had earlier consulted legal professionals and officials but chose not to file a formal complaint at the time due to fear and lack of support. However, she now says she feels more prepared and intends to pursue legal action to ensure accountability and prevent similar incidents in the future.
