People started praising her voice and her rendition highly and asked her why she got banned and when will she be able to sing again in Tamil Cinema. She interacted with them and revealed the following:
"96 was before the Metoo broke out.
Leo - I was hired despite the ban and Radha Ravi’s Union tried to find out who recorded me so that they can ban the Recording Engineer as well.
Nobody has the bandwidth to fight these battles when a film is about to release.
Radha Ravi sends a diktat to all the Unions to say a person is banned so other Unions should NOT hire them as well. Many have gone through the same.
Incidentally AnbAriv were also banned by their Union. But they were given relief by the Court.
I have been fighting my case for 6+ years.
That’s how it works."
She equated Radha Ravi, who held important positions in Nadigar Sangam and various unions of Tamil Cinema Industry has having a power equatable to a dictator and stating that every Union will listen to him despite having their preferences. She stated that she is fighting hard in Court and other legal bodies for 6 years.
Chinmayi, who got recognition as voice of Samantha, along with being a singer, first came out with serious accusations against lyricist Vairamuthu has a molester and abuser, in #METoo movement. Her accusations have led to a ban on her for dragging a respectable figure in cinema with ill-intentions. Since then, she is unable to sing in Tamil Cinema and give voice to any actresses in films.
