Simbu may have the bad boy tag forcefully attached to him but people around him and his fans seem to think otherwise and always give him a clean chit.  The latest is his childhood friend and industry colleague Gayathri Raghuram who attained recent fame after her participation in the 'Bigg Boss' show.

Gayathri Raghuram is back to movies after many years of activity in politics and working as the choreographer for the new movie 'Maha' starring Hansika Motwani as the lead heroine with Simbu playing a powerful cameo.

Gayathri has shared "My first song with my childhood buddy handsome STR mass and lovely working with beautiful Hansika.  Ticked my bucket list.  Completely professional and I know STR as his friend from 4 years old. Working with him and his knowledge and talent mesmerised me and I can proudly say I’m his friend and now his biggest fan. Mass
