Karthik Subbaraj Shuts Down Reporter's Sexist Question About Nimisha Sajayan's 'Beauty' at Jigarthanda DoubleX Success Meet (Watch Video)
Karthik's response was met with applause from the audience, and many people took to social media to praise him for standing up to Nimisha. His message is an important one, especially in a world where women are constantly bombarded with negative messages about their bodies.
Karthik Subbaraj recently made headlines for his response to a reporter's insensitive question about actress Nimisha Sajayan. During success meet of Jigarthanda DoubleX, a reporter asked filmmaker Subbaraj, "Though Nimisha Sajayan is not beautiful, she has performed on par with Raghava Lawrence. Why did you choose her for this role?" To which, Karthik was quick to reply and immediately shut down the reporter. "How can you say she's not beautiful?" he asked. "I don't know about your mindset, but you can't say one is not beautiful. I feel your understanding is very wrong," he replied.

Karthik Subbaraj Replies to Reporter's Insensitive Question:
Glad Karthik responded as he did. So often, these remarks get sandwiched between opinions and that makes it awkward for someone to address it, especially when on stage.
You can see his smile vanish the moment the remark was made. https://t.co/uTyKHy6AjB
