Director Vignesh Shivan recently landed in hot water for hitting ‘like’ on a post that stirred the pot regarding a speculated tiff between director Lokesh and superstar Vijay. All this drama happened after the launch of the smashing single, Naa Ready, from the film Leo. Though the gossip mills have been buzzing, neither Lokesh nor Vijay have broken their silence on the matter. And Climaxahh’s little birdie hints these stories might just be rumors!
So, what was the buzzed post all about? It showcased a snippet where Lokesh Kanagaraj chats about Thalaivar 171. The post hints at Lokesh’s sudden change in using Vijay’s name for Leo’s promotions, post the release of Naa Ready. Vignesh, perhaps in a hasty moment, liked this post but was quick to undo it.
Netizens were quick! One user even stated that Vignesh’s ‘like’ suggests he’s in on some inside scoop about the supposed incident.
However, Vignesh Shivan wasn’t going to let the storm rage on without putting his side out. Addressing the issue on social media, he conveyed his love for both Lokesh’s work and eagerly awaits Leo’s release. He admitted that he didn’t scrutinize the video or tweet closely and apologized to all of Vijay’s fans worldwide. In his words, he urged fans to “stop wasting time on this silly mistake” and instead bask in the anticipation of Leo’s grand release.
