THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Thrissur SP Yatheesh first appeared on social media as a villain in connection with Vypeen police action. Next he appeared as hero when he blocked Union Minister Pon Radhakrishnan

Then, all on a sudden came the news that he is a relative of actress Sheela and a Christian.

Now, listen right from the horse’s mouth! Yatheesh Chandra has come out with candid explanations during an interview given to a prominent Malayalam publication.

‘I’m a hearty eater
Yatheesh Chandra says that he loves eating good food. “I’m a pure vegetarian. I love Kerala Sadhya with payasam but the only problem is coconut oil. Why should we add coconut oil, which we usually use on our head? My food habit is strange. Four litre milk is bought in my house and out of that, I consume 3/4th litre.

I take milk, buttermilk, ghee and curd in large quantities. I use ghee in most food items I take. Just by the touch of my tongue, I can identify components of a food item.

I don't know Sheela

Even, I don’t know Sheela personally but nobody has asked me about news report that says I’m her relative. I’m a native of Davangare in Karnataka. I have not seen any Malayalam film. I’ve heard a lot about Suresh Gopi…I know him only as an MP. I’ve only heard about Mohanlal, Mammootty, Prithviraj and Nivin Pauly. I used to go to Sabarimala every year. In this season itself, I had darshan of Lord Ayyappa four times. After moving to Thrissur, I visit Guruvayur temple very often.”
