Katrina brings ease, fun and love on set, says Aanand L Rai

Highlights

• Anupama Parameswaran used three characters from Anniyan to describe the behaviour she says she experienced in a past relationship
• She said the relationship involved a repeating cycle of affection, cruelty and apologies
• Her comments come after a cryptic Instagram post sparked speculation about her alleged breakup with Dhruv Vikram

Anupama Parameswaran has found an unusual way to explain what she says was a two-year experience of “narcissistic abuse”. Rather than simply describing her former partner’s behaviour, the actor turned to three characters from Shankar’s Anniyan to illustrate how quickly his personality could appear to change.

Speaking to Dhanya Varma, Anupama said the relationship left her dealing with physical and emotional pain. She did not name the person involved, but said there were “two years of pain, physical and emotional destruction” behind a cryptic Instagram post she shared weeks earlier.
