Oviya is gearing up for her next movie, ‘90 ML’, which is all set to hit the screens on the 1st of March. The trailer of the film got released recently and sparked various controversies due to the 18+ content shown in the trailer. In an exclusive interview with Behindwoods, Oviya shares her opinion on the controversies, and talks about the movie.
Talking about the controversies, she said “Of course, this is a culture shock for some people, as women are seen smoking and drinking in the trailer. But the whole movie is not like this. It has all the elements of a movie, and what was seen in the trailer is just a part of the movie. It is just a movie, and if you don’t have confidence in your culture, or if you are a male chauvinist, please don’t watch 90 ML.”
When asked about the fans of Oviya who try to imitate her personality, she said “Why do people keep a movie star as their role-model? My parents are my role model. I try to follow them. If you really want to see me as a role model, why don’t you follow my real life personality?”
“I am a socially responsible person. I don’t drink and drive. I don’t smoke around in public places. I pay my taxes. Why don’t you take up that Oviya as a role model? The Oviya you see in 90 ML is an actor. She does what the director asks her to do. That’s all.”
‘90 ML’, directed by Alagiya Asura stars Oviya, Masoom, Monisha, Bommu, Shree Gopika, Anson Paul and Tej Raj in crucial roles. It has music by STR and is produced by NVIZ Entertainment.
