It may be recalled that Vishnu promised to provide round-the-clock protection for women artistes in his manifesto before MAA elections.

He had said that for the first time in the MAA history, a high-power women grievance cell will be set up in order to render round-the-clock protection for single mothers or single women in the film industry.
