Vijay has a request make to his fans, that they should not depict him as God, hereafter. This is his reaction to one such act by his fans, during the audio release of his forthcoming film Velayudham in Madurai recently.

In a statement, he said, “During the audio launch of my film ‘Velayudham’ in Madurai, some of my fans had put up a banner in which I was depicted as God. I was totally against it.”

“I immediately asked them to remove the posters and they did,” the actor said and added: “But a few miscreants are creating an issue out of it. I don’t agree with the practice of showcasing a man as the Almighty.”

Vijay added: “Also, I don’t discriminate people based on caste, creed and their status. I have friends, fans, colleagues, well-wishers and workers from different communities. I don’t know to what caste they belong and it doesn’t matter to me. All of us are human beings.”
