Vijay, at the audio launch of Bigil, requested his fans not to take Twitter trolling to a level where it turns ugly. On his part, Ajith also issued a statement against such fan battles. 

However, the requests don’t seem to have made any difference as fans of the two stars continued to indulge in petty fights on social media on Tuesday. The hashtag trolling Vijay sounded alarmingly unpleasant. 

During the online war, lyricist Vivek got caught in the crossfire. Vivek shared Shah Rukh Khan’s tweet praising Ajith Kumar, which didn’t go down well with Vijay fans. A fan of Bigil actor criticised the lyricist, but Vivek hit back.

This is how the conversation went:

One more thing 2 Both fans. Neenga adichukanumnu nenaikiravanga thaan inga jaasthi. Aanaa sanda podakoodadhunnu Thalapathy n Thala nenaikiraanga.

Neenga nallaa irukanumnu nenaikira 10 perayum hurt pannaadhenga. And FYI.. You can never Hurt me. I have d strongest of hearts

Meanwhile, Vijay’s Bigil is scheduled to release this Diwali. Directed by Atlee, it stars Nayanthara, Yogi Babu, Jackie Shroff, Kathir and Vivek in pivotal roles. AR Rahman has composed the music for the film.
