The well-known Tamil lyricist Vairamuthu found himself at the center of a controversy when a video of him praising a female singer's smile during a practice session went viral. However, due to the ongoing #MeToo accusations against Vairamuthu, the context of this seemingly innocent remark took a dark turn.

The context surrounding the compliment became crucial in this case. Given Vairamuthu's history of accusations, the comment was viewed as insincere flattery or even an attempt to normalize inappropriate behavior. Journalists also contributed to the discussion, with one remarking, "But you're a vile piece of shit!" In a recent development, singer Chinmayi criticized the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister for visiting Vairamuthu's house on his birthday, considering that he stands accused by her in the MeToo movement.
