Many users slammed the troll and reported the user. The Twitter account has been restricted now.

Singer Chinmayi Sripaada took to Twitter to condemn the troll’s behaviour and tagged Chennai Police. She shared a screenshot of the troll’s distasteful comment and wrote, “A Tamil man who expresses his difference of opinion. This is why they stand in support of sexual crimes in the society. Is nobody in this system going to change this? A man who can say in public about raping a child is a criminal.”

Why does this crappy society do this? Watch silently when this happens? How are men raised to speak out a rape threat?
Why is it when adults fight like hyenas, the women and children have to suffer?
Shame on all of you who do it and those who watch and remain silent.

Fondly called Makkal Selvan (son of the people), Sethupathi had been in the midst of controversies as politicians and Tamil Eelam supporters in Tamil Nadu were against him when he decided to play the Srilankan spinner in the biopic.

The film is in the midst of the controversy due to Muttiah Muralitharan’s comments in favour of the Sri Lankan Civil War that killed thousands of Eelam Tamils.

Recently a man who issued rape threats to cricketer Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s daughter was arrested by the cops.

Anirudh Ravichander will be composing the music for this film. Evandendru Ninaithai will be bankrolled by Kamal Haasan himself in the banner of Raj Kamal Films Internation (RKFI). The film is scheduled to have its theatrical release on the summer of 2021.

Earlier, several online reports had claimed that Logesh Kanakaraj has decided to release his upcoming movie Master via OTT platforms, as theaters in the country remain closed due to the coronavirus pandemic. However, Logesh Kanakaraj soon clarified that the film demands a theatrical hit, and it will be released soon after the reopening of movie halls in the country.

On the other hand, Kamal Haasan’s previous movie to hit the theaters was Vishwaroopam 2. Even though released with a huge pre-release hype, the film bombed at the box-office.
