The violin maestro has refuted his maid's claims; says he will take action against everyone who has helped spread the false allegations
Noted violinist and husband of popular playback singer Kavita Krishnamurthy, L Subramaniam, now intends to take action against all parties responsible for spreading allegations that he molested his maid Bhagya, who had stolen cash and valuables worth Rs 6 lakh from his house.
Countering the theft allegation, Bhagya allegedly made baseless and false allegations in order to divert attention from the theft.

Uday Raj, an official from the Avon Agency, expressed shock over the incident.
Bhagya was working with the family for the last nine months and had worked as housekeeping staff in the office for the last two months.
"We got to know about the issue last Thursday when the police came with Bhagya, charging her with theft and later took her to her native place to search for the booty. They later returned empty-handed and released Bhagya.
She has not come to work since then, and we got to know about the issue only after reading the newspaper day before," Subramaniam said.
Police Commissioner Shankar Bidari said that they were probing both cases. On Monday, an NGO had submitted a petition accusing Subramaniam of sexually harassing Bhagya. But, Bhagya had not filed any case directly, Bidari added.
The police probe is based on the petition filed by the NGO. But the time and dates that Bhagya mentioned do not match with her allegations, as there were family members present in the house, the police said.
Police are now waiting for Bhagya to record her statement. She can file a complaint or make a statement with
the police.
Subramaniam approached the police commissioner on Monday night and narrated his statement to a spokesperson.
