Controversies edit
Yaashika Aanand herself has been caught in numerous controversial issues for her approach as a pornography oriented person in the films that she has acted and in the way of answering the questions at the interviews that she faced after emerging as an Instagram role model to the youth.
After switching into act in the Gautham Karthik's film, IAMK she also received criticisms for choosing to act in an adult comedy film but she refused the criticisms and pointed out that Tamil film industry should have a mixture of films including the adult films and also explained that there aren't any wrong doing by her in selecting to work for such a movie.[1]
At an interview after the release of IAMK, where she spoke about her first ever porn watching experience when studying at Grade 1; she also clearly mentioned that girls too can lose virginity even before marriage similar to the men after being questioned for her brave acting in exposing her voluptuous body in the film, Iruttu Araiyil Murattu Kuththu; a thing that no other actresses have done it like Yaashika in a Tamil film ever before.[2][3] Her remarks on women losing the virginity before marriage has raised criticisms and controversies from critics.
Yaashika also stated that she doesn't mind about virginity in working with a popular actor like Vijay Deverakonda for the upcoming film, NOTA.[4]
In an interview with a YouTube channel she boldly told the reporters that she would share the bed with a popular Hindi male actor Ranveer Singh, after being asked in the interview with which popular celebrity she would likely to share the bed with apart from a woman celebrity which in fact raised criticisms from the viewers.[5]
She was often compared to pornstar, Mia Khalifa in the social media and also became a limelight in the Tamil cinema along with Chandrika Ravi after her performance as a voluptuous girlfriend of Gautham Karthik in the adult horror film, Iruttu Araiyil Murattu Kuththu.[6][7]
