Kannada actress, Divya Spandana who made her debut in Tamil with STR in Kuthu and appeared in hit films like Polladhavan and Vaaranam Aayiram is bang in the middle of a controversy. It all started when she failed to attend a promotional event for her latest Kannada film, Dhandam Dhashagunam. The producer, Ganesh was furious and claimed that she kept everyone waiting. He said that she did not even have the courtesy to answer for her absence despite promising to attend on receiving payment and was avoiding phone calls. A complaint has been lodged against Divya with the Kannada Film Producers Association.
Divya has responded by saying that Ganesh borrowed money from her and has failed to return it. And HE is avoiding her phone calls and not the other way around. She is controversy’s favorite child and has been hauled up on charges ranging from unprofessionalism and failure to honor professional commitments. Once, dance artistes hired for a film of hers went on strike to protest against her behavior.
The actress is wearied by all the trouble she has faced and is contemplating retirement from the hassles of the film industry. She is thinking of starting over. We hope her troubles are resolved soon.
