'Will you marry that actress? There are strong rumours'; Lokesh Kanakaraj responds

Lokesh Kanagaraj, the most sought-after director of Kollywood, had a tough time dealing with a journalist in a recent event. The director, who arrived in Chennai to talk about his new film, was confronted by a journalist who asked for his response on a new rumour.

The journalist asked, “There are talks on social media that you are very close to an actress. Any chance you're marrying her?”

To this, Lokesh said that he already had a family and all those were baseless rumours. However, the journalist went a bit too far with his liberty and asked if the director would mind starting a second family.

To this, Lokesh said thanks to all and walked out of the event. After the video of the incident went viral on social media, many came criticizing the journalist. Many said it was totally uncouth of the journalist to ask such a demeaning question to the director.

Lokesh married Aishwarya in 2012 after long years of dating. Lokesh and Aishwarya have two children.
