This move followed after reports of online backlash against Vignesh after his recent appearance on a round-table pertaining to the pan-India films. Users on the Internet pointed out that his last film ‘Kaathuvaakula Rendu Kaadhal,’ was not a pan-Indian project.

His upcoming film, ‘Love Insurance Kompany,’ also doesn’t fit into that category. However, no statement has been issued by Vignesh or his team with regards to the deactivation of his X account.

His Instagram account remains active, and the director has also shared posts on Instagram but didn’t mention anything about deleting his X account.

Earlier, a controversy erupted when Nayanthara slammed Tamil star Dhanush as the actress called out the star after he sent a legal notice to her seeking compensation over the use of certain clips in the documentary without authorisation.

The actress took to her Instagram, and shared a long letter addressed to Dhanush in which she pointed the gun at the actor for trying to block the release of her documentary as it features footage from the film ‘Naanum Rowdy Dhaan.’
