Tamil cinema recently witnessed intense online discussions after Vijay’s much-awaited film Jana Nayagan faced an unexpected delay. The film was originally scheduled for a January 9 release. However, delays in censor certification forced the makers to postpone it at the last minute.
Meanwhile, Sivakarthikeyan’s Parasakthi released as planned. This coincidence quickly sparked social media debates and fan-driven comparisons between the two films.
Trolls Trigger Unnecessary Fan Wars
Soon after Parasakthi hit theatres, a section of fans began trolling on social media. Many tried to project the situation as a rivalry between Sivakarthikeyan and Vijay. However, Sivakarthikeyan firmly dismissed such narratives.
He clarified that he never wanted to turn the release situation into a controversy. According to him, cinema should unite audiences, not divide them.
Sivakarthikeyan Calls Vijay a “Brother”
During Pongal celebrations in Tamil Nadu, Sivakarthikeyan spoke openly to the media. He addressed the ongoing fan wars and online criticism with calm confidence. The actor said some fans tend to exaggerate issues without reason.
He clearly stated that Vijay is like a brother to him. Moreover, he added that their bond remains strong and unchanged. Sivakarthikeyan also said that he does not feel the need to give explanations for baseless social media noise.
No Controversy Around ‘Parasakthi’, Says Actor
While speaking about Parasakthi, Sivakarthikeyan stressed that the film itself carries no controversy from his side. He expressed confidence that audiences understand the film’s message clearly. According to him, the movie is reaching people in the right way.
He further explained that unnecessary arguments only distract from meaningful cinema.
Film Set Against 1965 Anti-Hindi Protests
Parasakthi is a period political action drama set during the 1965 anti-Hindi protests in Tamil Nadu. Sudha Kongara directed the film, with Sivakarthikeyan playing the lead role.
Since its announcement, the film has remained in the spotlight due to its sensitive political backdrop. The Tamil Nadu Youth Congress even demanded a ban, raising concerns over its theme.
Makers Defend the Film’s Intent
Despite the criticism, the film’s director and producers have defended Parasakthi in multiple interviews. They stated that the story presents historical events responsibly and without distortion.
With Sivakarthikeyan’s latest comments, the actor aims to end speculation. He wants audiences to focus on cinema rather than online conflicts or fan-made controversies.
