After Soundarya Rajinikanth married actor-businessman Vishagan Vanangamudi in February, the newlyweds went to Iceland for their honeymoon. The younger daughter of Tamil superstar Rajinikanth shared pictures from Iceland, but was soon subject to trolls who criticised her for posting happy photos a day after the Pulwama terror attack. Her post was flooded with comments asking her to stop tweeting honeymoon pictures for the time being and mourn the death of CRPF jawans.
The graphic designer, producer and director has been mired in a similar criticism once again. On Sunday, she shared a picture of herself along with her son Ved posing in a swimming pool while on vacation. She captioned it, “Teach them early … and they learn to shine by themselves !!! #Swimming is an essential activity !! #TeachThemYoung #KeepThemActive #WaterFun #EnsureSafetyAlways #NeverLeaveThemAlone #Motherhood #Bliss.”
However, Soundarya received backlash for posting photos of them enjoying in the pool while Chennai is going through a severe water crisis currently. She deleted the photos from her Twitter page soon, after “considering the sensitivity around the current #WaterScarcity” Chennai is facing. The city is grappling with its worst-ever water crisis after its four reservoirs dried up.
Removed the pictures shared in good spirit from my #TravelDiaries considering the sensitivity around the current #WaterScarcity we are facing 🙏🏻. The throwback pics were to emphasise the importance for physical activities for children from a young age only 🙂🙏🏻 #LetsSaveWater

Here’s the picture she had initially posted. It is no longer available on her handle.
Her decision to delete the pictures was lauded by many on social media, with people sympathising with her predicament as a celebrity.
Really it’s hard to be a celebrity. Huh

Being a daughter to Rajini is difficult

Ved is Soundarya’s child from her first marriage with Ashwin Ramkumar. After their divorce, Soundarya and Visahgan tied the knot on February 11 in Chennai, which was followed by a grand reception party in the evening at The Leela Palace. Their wedding ceremony was attended by the who’s who of the Tamil film industry and politicians.
