Model turned actress Meera Mitun has become a household name across Tamil Nadu after her appearance on the hit Tamil reality TV show, Bigg Boss. One of the most debated names on Bigg Boss 3, there has been considerable talk about her actions during her stint on the show. Meera Mitun, who was evicted from the show a few days back, had come under scrutiny after she had raised allegations against director Cheran for inappropriately touching her during one of the tasks the housemates were all performing together. In the midst of this, there was a raging controversy outside the Bigg Boss house surrounding Meera Mitun and her prior actions that she had conned a few beauty pageant aspirants under the guise that she was producing the Miss South India show. That said, the present Miss South India producer Ajith Ravi has now issued an official statement on video saying Meera Mitun, who was crowned as Miss South India 2016, has been dethroned from the title.

Ajith Ravi stated the reason Meera Mitun has been stripped off from the title is because of various complaints he has received over the past one year, which includes lying about her age and marital status. However, the main reason they have decided to take away the Miss South India 2016 title from Meera Mitun is because of the police complaint raised against the Bigg Boss 3 star alleging she had cheated a designer by taking Rs. 50000/- for which they have received the receipt of the police complaint. He then concluded by saying the title has now been given to actress and supermodel, Sanam Shetty, who will be carrying it forward from this point on. Incidentally, Sanam Shetty is the girlfriend of another Bigg Boss 3 star, Tharshan Thiyagarajah, who is an actor hailing from Sri Lanka.
