Controversies

Keerthy Suresh is known for maintaining a low profile and has not been involved in any major controversies so far in her career. However, there was a minor controversy in 2018 when the Tamil Nadu government issued a notice to Keerthy Suresh, along with other Tamil film stars, for allegedly evading taxes.

It was alleged that Keerthy Suresh had failed to pay the luxury tax for her car, which is mandatory for all luxury car owners in Tamil Nadu. The government had reportedly sent a notice to Keerthy, asking her to pay the tax amount along with the penalty.

However, Keerthy denied the allegations and clarified that she had paid all the taxes on time. She also released a statement stating that she was not involved in any illegal activities and that she had complied with all the rules and regulations.

The issue was eventually resolved, and Keerthy Suresh continued to focus on her career and delivering exceptional performances on the big screen.
