Vignesh Shivan deactivates X account amid online criticism

It seems to be a challenging phase for star couple Nayanthara and Vignesh Shivan.

While Nayanthara faces a lawsuit for allegedly using a clip from Dhanush’s movie without permission, her husband, director Vignesh Shivan, has been caught in a wave of online criticism.

Vignesh recently participated in a pan-Indian directors’ roundtable discussion, but his inclusion drew backlash on X (formerly Twitter). Many questioned his presence, pointing out that his last film, released in 2022, was not a pan-Indian project.

His upcoming film, Love Insurance Kompany, also doesn’t currently fit into the pan-Indian category.

The criticism extended to the interviewer, with netizens expressing discontent over his choice of guests.

The trolling ultimately led Vignesh to deactivate his X account.

While he has not addressed the issue on Instagram, it appears to have been a disheartening experience for him. Fans now await his response and hope for his return to X.
