People from the film industry have also demanded an apology, due to which this matter has moved from politics to a subject of social debate. Now this issue is also discussed on social media.

Controversial statement earlier also

This is not the first time Shanmugam has come into controversy. Even before, his statements regarding women have been a topic of discussion. Last year also he had made a comment, which had created controversy. Even at that time the opposition parties had criticized him. At present, AIADMK has not given an official reaction on this matter, but some sources in the party have said that the organization considers itself separate from this statement. Now it remains to be seen what further steps are taken.
