Anitha Sampath who started her career as a newsreader has also acted in a few films 'Danny' and 'Irumbu Manithan'. She is now a contestant on 'Bigg Boss 4' who has responsibly started the first controversy of the season by feuding with Suresh Chakravarthy.

The initial perception that the audience had on Anitha shifted from positive to negative after her confrontational attitude and even when she emotionally spoke about how she suffered in poverty before entering media was also painted as fake by social media users.

It is said that Anitha's dad Sampath created a fake id under the name Sampath Ji and has commented on a YouTube channel in Tanglish "Dont bad mouth Anitha Sampath, I know her personally and she is like an elder sister to me. When my school refused to allow me to write my exams because I did not pay six months school fees, it was Anitha akka who paid it on my behalf and helped me. Without knowing her kind heart please don't speak bad about her just because she spoke one wrong word.

Netizens are sharing pics trolling Sampath for creating fake id and posting a fake story to help his daughter. However it is not authenticated whether Sampath did what is claimed on social media or its created by other social media users.
