The critics of Ilayathalapathy are having a field day at K – town actor Vijay’s expense.

One of the biggest boons of being a celebrity is also a bane. While actors enjoy admiration and love of millions, one silly faux pas on their behalf is enough to grab eyeballs. Something similar happened to Kollywood actor Vijay.

The audio launch of his upcoming film Theri took place recently on a really grand scale. Many celebrities from the Tamil film industry were present. Also, the main cast and crew of Theri made brief speeches on stage. Then came Ilayathalapathy’s turn to speak. He started out by being his humble self and praising Atlee, Amy Jackson and the other cast.

All was going smoothly until he decided to divert from the film. Quoting a saying from communist leader Mao Zedung, he went on to refer Mao as a great Russian leader! It is a well known fact that Mao was a Chinese revolutionary and founder of People’s Republic of China. Talk about a big slip up. The fans at the venue greeted this with silence, but those on Twitter were much more vocal and had much to say.

Soon, people started trolling the actor and compared his lack of general knowledge to that of Rahul Gandhi. They also said that he should stick to romancing heroines and not get into all this. If you are a Vijay fan, then this incident will surely take you back to Puli days, which was the last time the actor got trolled so hard.

Seems There are two MAO’s in History One From China and Another one Recently found by Vijay from Russia! Real Leader https://t.co/AruAgRrQV4

It’s is not the first time for Vijay, who has faced flak throughout his career, especially by diehard fans of Ajith Kumar. It would do the actor some good if he thought twice before speaking up the next time.
