Helen Nelson, popularly known as Oviya, is a notable figure in Tamil and Malayalam cinema. The 33-year-old actress, born into a Syrian Christian family, recently found herself at the center of controversy after an alleged intimate video leaked online, showing her in a compromising situation. The clip quickly went viral, sparking debates on whether the video is authentic or a deepfake. Although Oviya has not directly addressed the scandal, she shared a picture on Instagram on October 12. When a troll in the comments section asked her to share a longer version of the video, she responded humourously, writing, “Next time bro”. ‘I Am Not Lesbian’!
