I would be very very proud to be any kind of sexual in the gigantic and glorious spectrum of sexuality that exists out there. I would not be ashamed. I would be proud. I would join a pride rally in my city, which I anyway will. All kinds of sexualities join the pride rally and show your support. There is no shame anymore. There’s just pride. Be proud.” [5]The Indian Express • Cursed Trisha and Chinmayi For Career Destroying Prank In May 2024, she cursed actress Trisha Krishnan and singer Chinmayi over their reactions to the Suchi Leaks controversy. • Karan Johar and Shah Rukh Khan had gay encounter In an interview in May 2024, she claimed that her ex-husband Karthik had gay encounter with Karan Johar and Shah Rukh Khan in London. According to Suchitra, these Bollywood celebrities often visit countries where 'gay sex' is legal. She said, "Once when Karthik was on a London trip, he did meet Karan Johar and Shah Rukh Khan, and they did hang out on a lane full of bars. They were cross-dressed. This is something that Karan and Shah Rukh often do when they go abroad. They visit a gay area dressed in such a manner. They merge in that vibe and enjoy the night."
