I don’t pretend: Gopi Sundar embraces being 'shameless'

Music director Gopi Sundar recently shared a social media post emphasising the importance of living authentically. In the post, he addressed the criticism he often faces and shared a photo with his friend Mayoni, sparking discussions online.
In his post, Gopi wrote, “People hide their true selves, suppressing and acting to please others. But I don’t act that way. I live as myself. I proudly accept being called a 'shameless person.' In the story of Adam and Eve, their disobedience led to shame and hiding. In reality, they were created to live authentically. As the Bible says, 'The truth will set you free' (John 8:32). God values truth and honesty more than mere theatrics. If you have the courage, live like me. We only have one life, so live it fully. Let others live their lives too. Always respect consent, stay happy, and be true to yourself. Wishing everyone a Happy New Year.”

The post also addressed recurring rumours about his relationship with Mayoni. While the duo has not officially commented on their bond, their frequent appearances together have often sparked speculation. Criticism intensified when Gopi shared a photo with Mayoni during a trip to Switzerland, prompting him to respond indirectly through his recent post.

Gopi Sundar is no stranger to social media scrutiny. He often faces harsh criticism regarding his past relationships and breakups, with many misinterpreting his pictures with friends. However, the music director remains unfazed, responding firmly when needed. In a previous post, he shared a photo with Mayoni, captioned “Vaada Vaada” (Come, Come), which also attracted significant attention. Even his solo pictures are not spared by critics, but Gopi frequently delivers sharp and fitting responses, staying true to his philosophy of living authentically.
