There is hot gossip in Kodambakkam that Abhirami and director Gautham are living together and he is to build a house for her in the US. Gautham has been ignoring this for quite some time, now he has given importance to that rumour and offered an explanation.
'There are rumours that most of my films are being shot in the US because I'm in love with Abhirami who lives there. It's not true. Would I take a film crew of 45 to US for my own selfish ends? It's foolish to say I'm evolving stories based on a girl.
I bought the house in US for my wife., not for Abhirami. When I invited her to act in 'Chennayil Oru Mazhaikalam,' she said she has quit films to concentrate on her studies. Surya was also not keen on starring with Abhirami, so I gave up efforts to ask her.
It is now 4 years since we lost touch. Maybe she is happily married and settled now," said Gautham.
Asked about the split between him and Harris Jayaraj, he said he was shocked by the explanation given by Harris and was still not sure for the reason behind the break-up.
