In a video CD sent to a Tamil TV channel, Nithyananda said, “Neither I nor my dhyanapeetam (ashram) have done anything illegal or against the law. I’m trying to collect all facts on the allegations against me and I will soon expose the truth,” the seer said.

The channel, however, claimed that Nithyananda had not made any reference to specific allegations regarding his “sexual romp” with Tamil actress Ranjitha. The seer made the headlines last week when a channel first aired explicit scenes between Nithyananda and Ranjitha.

Tamil Nadu Police registered cases against him at Chennai and Coimbatore after some lawyers and his former devotee Nithya Dharmananda alias K Lenin, lodged complaints.

Ranjitha, who also acted in Malayalam and Telugu movies, is reported to be hiding in Kerala. Nithyananda is accused of misbehaving with many women. The seer has a huge following abroad and is said to be close to many political leaders.

Nithyananda, a disciple of yoga practitioner Raghupati Maharaj, had become a popular yoga guru at a young age.
