'Don't Squish Me': Nithya Menen Stops Director Mysskin From Hugging Her At Chennai Event (VIDEO)

The trailer of actress Nithya Menen's upcoming film, Kadhalikka Neramillai, was released by the makers at a grand event in Chennai on Tuesday. While at it, the actress was seen asking director Mysskin to not hug her, and he ended up kissing her hand instead.

A video of their banter has now gone viral in which an ecstatic Nithya walked up to Mysskin as he arrived at the event. However, as soon as he came forward to greet her, Nithya was heard saying playfully, "Don't squish me, I am fully dressed up."

He then shook her hand and planted a kiss on it, and in return, Nithya sweetly kissed him on his cheek.

For those unversed, Nithya and Mysskin had collaborated in 2020 for their film Psycho, which also starred the present Deputy Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, Udhayanidhi Stalin, in the lead role.

Meanwhile, the trailer launch event of Kadhalikka Neramillai was also attended by Jayam Ravi, AR Rahman, Anirudh Ravichander, and others. The film has been directed by Udhayanidhi's wife, Kiruthiga, and is set to hit the silver screens on January 14.

In 2019, she marked her Bollywood debut as she starred in Akshay Kumar's Mission Mangal, co-starring Vidya Balan, Kirti Kuhari, Sonakshi Sinha, Sanjay Kapoor, and others.

On the other hand, Mysskin is also an actor, and has featured in films like Vijay's Leo and Sivakarthikeyan's Maaveeran. He will be next seen in Love Insurance Kompany and Dragon.
