Malayalam actress Shruthy Menon has defended her photo shoot for bridal magazine Vivah, which allegedly shows her  partially nude, and has created a social media storm in Kerala.

The photos show her sporting traditional jewellery on bare skin. She has gone bare back and topless though there is enough gold covering her skin to rule out frontal nudity.

The photos went viral with many slamming it and asking what prompted her to pose nude.

Shruthy Menon posted on her Facebook pagesaying the project made her look great and brought out the “earthy raw side” of her.

She also said if other female actors went ahead and flaunted their curves, they would be appreciated as the creator had intended.

She also told Deccan Chronicle that if more actresses posed for such beautiful photographs, the audience would get the big picture and the change their attitude.

She acknowledged the uproar her photos had created, but dismissed it saying she had got more appreciation.
