Meanwhile, a recent report had said that actors united together and raised voice against the youtubers. “Kaadhal” Sugumar, Actor Arul Mani, Actress Nirbhaya Revathi and few others conducted a press meet while complaining against the youtubers. “For our cinema industry, a censor board is being operated to remove obscene sequences. But for social media platforms such as Youtube, Whatsapp, Twitter and Instagram, there is no one to censor” Sugumar says in the press meet.

“A 10 year old kid who watches them could think that talking obscene language will take them to places. Certain channels are inviting them and providing them awards as well. When my child asks me why he receiving an award, could I say that he gained fame by talking bad language ?” Sugumar could be seen saying in the press meet. The actors who raised the complaint expressed their concern over children who learn through online classes getting misguided on seeing the growth of personalities such as G.P Muthu.

When the actors were asked whether they are making the complaint just because the youtubers started getting movie opportunities, they reportedly said that the future of kids is their only concern. “When I watched the videos of G.P Muthu, Ilakkiya, Rowdy Baby and others, I could tolerate them myself” Sugumar added.
