Vivek on Monday apologised for Âhurting the sentiments of media persons by making some Âinflammatory remarks at a meeting organised by the Nadigar Sangam in Chennai last year to protest a newspaper report.
Speaking to reporters, the actor said, ÂI owe my growth in the film industry to the media. I had no other support than the press when I stepped into acting in 1987. Since then, you (journalists) have been encouraging me.Â
ÂI always have a huge respect for the press. But some remarks I made during the meeting had unfortunately hurt you all. Those words were out of frustration and they were later misquoted and misinterpreted. I never intended to insult the media, which is the reason behind my success, he added.
Saying that he was asked in a recent television chat show as to who were the two persons he would like to thank and apologise, Vivek said, ÂMy answer for both the questions was the press. I thank the media for its support and apologise for the comments I made.Â
