Vivek voices his support for Vadivelu

Vivek is currently in the news for two good reasons. One, he plays host for the much-anticipated Rajinikanth’s interview to be aired on Jaya TV for this Tamil New Year’s Day at 10 AM. And the other reason is, he has openly voiced his support for his rival in the industry Vadivelu. “Gm tweeples!Letz all pray for the smooth release of”Thenaliraman”n a great sucess which shd make the producer n trade ppl happy,” tweeted the comedian yesterday.

Touted as Vadivelu’s comeback film, Tenaliraman has created a lot of interest among the fans. Tenaliraman, directed by Yuvaraj and produced by AGS Entertainment is slated for a release on April 18th. Telugu minority groups have been protesting against the film under assumption that it has portrayed King Krishna Devarayar and his court poet Tenaliraman in a degrading manner. Producers are likely to showcase the film to the protesters this week before the film’s release, we hear.
