Bangalore,
June 1 (IANS) Popular south Indian actress Ramya has refused to
apologise for arriving late to a press meet for the promotion of
Kannada film "Jothegaara". She claimed she was not informed about the
event or else she would have come on time.

"I was never told by the producer (Ashwini Ramprasad) that there was a
press conference. He invited me for a dinner party with the
journalists. I had intimated him well in advance that I will be late
for the dinner as I was preoccupied. I will not apologise as I have not
done anything wrong," Ramya told IANS.

Ramya, who is also known as Divya Spandana in the Tamil film industry,
created a scene Sunday when she had retorted to an angry outburst from
a senior journalist that she needs to apologise for her late arrival to
the conference.

The event was delayed for an hour because the actress reached late. The
film's hero Prem, director Sikamani and other technicians too were
waiting for her.

"I have not invited you to this meet. If you feel irritated that I came
late, you can walk out of the room," said an agitated Ramya. After this
many journalists walked out of the press meet.

Ramprasad later confirmed Ramya's version that she was not informed
about the press meet and he had only invited her for the dinner.

Ramya remained unapologetic at the alternative press meet, which was organised in a separate room later.

"I'm not a submissive person. I can't be bowed by threats. In fact, the
scribe insulted and humiliated me. I think I deserve some respect as a
woman and as an actress. It's true that I explained my position in an
angry tone, but you should understand that I was provoked. The
journalist had sought an explanation for coming late in a hostile
fashion which had really upset me. I will react in similar way if
anyone crosses the level of decency," said Ramya.
