By: Priya Chowdhary Nuthalapti | 20 July 2026 5:59 PM ISTActress Aishwarya Lekshmi has once again grabbed attention with her bold comments about social media. Known for speaking her mind without hesitation, the actress said that she has no plans to return to social media, no matter how much money she is offered.
Aishwarya, who studied medicine before entering the film industry, has built a strong career by choosing performance-oriented roles instead of glamorous characters. She has acted in films like Ponniyin Selvan 2, King of Kotha, Thug Life, Matti Kusthi, Godse, and several other successful movies. She is also working with Sai Durgha Tej in the upcoming Telugu film Sambarala Yeti Gattu.
Speaking during the promotions of her latest film Matti Kusthi 2, Aishwarya shared her thoughts on social media and why she decided to stay away from it. She said, "I don't think social media is a safe place. Life has become much easier after staying away from it. I have no plans to make a comeback."
The actress revealed that she had a difficult experience in the past. She said that some people morphed her photos and posted offensive comments online, making her feel as if everyone hated her. Because of those experiences, she decided to leave social media completely.
Aishwarya also made a surprising statement by saying, "Even if someone offers me ₹100 crore a day, I will not return to social media." She added that she now enjoys meeting audiences directly instead of connecting with them through online platforms.
Interestingly, she joked that she still uses her dog's Instagram account whenever she wants to share updates related to her films or other important activities.
Apart from Matti Kusthi 2, Aishwarya also announced her upcoming projects. She will soon be seen playing a police officer in a new film. She has also signed a woman-centric movie directed by Aishwaryanand.
