Chinmayi says goodbye to Tamil cinema - Vairamuthu issue impact?

Chinmayi took a bold step in accusing legendary lyricist and Tamil scholar Vairamuthu of sexual misconduct. Vairamuthu has since denied the charges and stated that he would meet any such case in the courts of law as others too have come out with similar allegations on Me Too. Chinmayi seems to be feeling the heat professionally as she has reportedly been terminated from the dubbing union.

Chinmayi's statement reads "I expected the first axe to go down from the dubbing union. I dont know yet if I’ll be given my membership back. Just a decision that’s been taken without informing me that my membership is terminated. I am still on the much publicised concert tour in the US. According to Tamil Film Industry rules if you’re not a member of the dubbing union they wont allow you to work. Considering no written communication, message was sent to me on past dues and with the membership terminated I wonder if I ll dub for a film again in Tamil. Sooo given to understand that I have been terminated from the dubbing union. Which means I can longer dub in Tamil films henceforth. The reason stated is that I haven’t paid ‘subscription fees’ for 2 years though this hasn’t stopped them from taking 10% off my dubbing income.

Chinmayi has concluded "Anyway as of now it looks like ‘96 will be my last in Tamil. It is a good film to end my Tamil dubbing scene with if the termination were to continue. Bye Bye! Apart from her lovely voice enhancing many a song Chinmayi is also a much sought after dubbing artiste both in Tamil and Telugu and many heroine's performances are elevated due to her background voice. Tollywood superstar Mahesh Babu has mentioned that when he hears Chinmayi speak he thinks its Samantha as her voice has had such an impact.
