Sukanya, who once worked as a heroine in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam languages, is today playing the role of a mother. He was last seen in ‘Srimanthudu’ which was released in Telugu ten years ago. But a case related to him is going on in the court for the last 30 years. Now the final decision of the case has come. The court ordered that he be given a compensation of Rs 10 lakh.

What happened
Forest robber Veerappan was interviewed in Sun TV’s ‘Nerukku Ner’ program in 1996. However, some comments were made regarding actress Sukyana. However, Sukanya felt that this had hurt her reputation, so she approached the court. Since then the legal battle is continuing. In 2015, the trial court ruled in favor of Sukanya and ordered compensation.
However, Sun TV Network filed an appeal challenging the court’s decision. Recently the Madras High Court rejected the appeal. With this Sukanya finally got justice. It has been clarified that Rs 10.01 lakh will have to be paid as compensation. The court made interesting comments on this occasion. Sun TV has made it clear that Sun TV has full control over the content of the interview before it is broadcast and the company has the opportunity to review it and remove the defamatory content. It said that despite such an opportunity, objectionable comments were circulated.
