On Tuesday, Nivetha Pethuraj took to her official X handle to dismiss claims and rumours made with regard to her lavish lifestyle. The post comes as a reply to a trending video in which a media person is seen commenting on Nivetha Pethuraj and making claims about her lifestyle and house in Dubai.

In a long note, the actor wrote, "Lately there has been false news circulating about money being lavishly spent on me. I kept quiet because I thought people who are speaking about this would have some humanity to verify the information they receive before mindlessly spoiling a girl’s life. My family and I have been under extreme stress since a few days. Please think before spreading such false news."

Further, she spoke about how her family has been in Dubai for a long while. "I come from a very dignified family. I have been financially independent and stable since the age of 16. My family still resides in Dubai. We’ve been in Dubai for over 20 years. Even in the movie industry, I have never ever asked any producer, director or hero to cast me or give me movie opportunities. I have done over 20 films and it was all that found me. I was and never will be greedy for work or money. I can confirm that none of the information spoken about me so far is true. We have lived in a rented house in Dubai since 2002. Also, racing has been my passion since 2013. In fact, I had no idea about the races being conducted in Chennai."

Lastly, she concluded her statement by saying, "I am not taking this up legally because I still believe there’s some humanity left in journalism, that they won’t continue to defame me like this. I request journalists to verify the information you receive before spoiling a family’s reputation and not put our family through any more traumas." (sic)

On the work front, Nivetha was last seen in Das Ka Dhamki and Boo. She currently has Party in the pipeline. She recently also bagged a medal at a State Level Badminton Tournament, in Tamil Nadu.
