A small slip on social media could lead to one becoming a victim of a targeted attack. Even a normal act of liking a tweet could end you in trouble as it did for director Vignesh Shivan. The Poda Podi director liked a tweet of a user, who is notorious among Vijay fans. The tweet claimed that Lokesh Kanagaraj and Vijay had a fallout after the release of the Naa Varava song from Leo, and it claimed that all was not well between the director and the star.
Vijay fans were enraged to find that director Vignesh Shivan had liked the tweet. Many Vijay fans trolled him online leading to the director apologising for his ‘silly mistake’. In a long statement, Vignesh Shivan claimed that he didn’t see the tweet’s content and had liked it just because it was about Lokesh Kanagaraj. He asked fans not to waste time on this mistake and to celebrate Leo.
Leo has become a touchy subject online ever since the audio launch of the film was cancelled leading to speculations that Vijay is being targetted for his rumoured political ambitions. There’s a huge expectation for the film due to such factors. Also, the film has become a subject of controversy. From Lokesh Kanagaraj getting called out for glorifying violence to rumours about his alleged fallout with Vijay, Leo is constantly the topic of discussion in Kollywood.
The film will be released on October 19.
