Vijay to apologize?

Actor Vijay incurred the wrath of the lawyer community for his remarks about them in his film Sivakasi. Following this, several petitions were filed in various magistrate courts seeking action against the actor, producer AM Rathinam, director Perarasu and comedian MS Bhaskar. This issue was taken up for hearing at the High Court yesterday (July 16th).

On hearing both the parties to the case, Justice Raghupathy asked the complainants if a formal apology from the defendants would suffice to put an end to the issue. To this, the advocate who represented that lawyers’ community said that Vijay, Perarasu and AM Rathinam should present themselves before the court and submit a written apology. The case has been posted for hearing next week when the final outcome will be known.
