'You Rot In Hell': Vishal Slams AIADMK Leader AV Raju For His Derogatory Comments On Trisha

Actor Vishal Krishna has come down heavily on AIADMK functionary AV Raju who passed derogatory comments against Trisha Krishnan.

Without naming him, Vishal called AV Raju 'a stupid idiot.' He wrote, "I just heard that a stupid idiot from a political party spoke very ill and disgustingly about someone from our film fraternity. I will not mention your name nor the name of the person you targeted because I know you did it for publicity. I definitely will not mention names because we are not just good friends but also mutual co artistes in the film fraternity. (sic)"

The 'Thupparivalan' star said that the women in the AIADMK functionary will call out his act. He added, "What you have done is absolutely filthy and not worth mentioning, But these particular ppl mean a lot personally and professionally. Honestly, I don't want to condemn you, which is an understatement, but I hope you rot in hell. (sic)" He also claimed that Raju did it just for publicity, "Of course, this has become a trend of trying to make money out of negative publicity about celebrities. Get a job, a better job. (sic)"

In a viral video, AV Raju had uttered indecent and disrespectful remarks about her when discussing the 2017 Koovathur Resort incident, during which AIADMK MLAs were relocated there following Jayalalithaa's demise.

It was during this time that AIADMK leader Edappadi K Palaniswamy was selected as Chief Minister under the guidance of the then-party leader Sasikala. Immediately afterward, Sasikala was transferred to a Bengaluru prison to serve a four-year sentence stemming from her conviction in the disproportionate assets case, in which Jayalalithaa was the main defendant.

Trisha has threatened to take legal action against the AIADMK leader. On Twitter, she said,"It's disgusting to repeatedly see low lives and despicable human beings who will stoop down to any level to gain attention. Rest assured, necessary and severe action will be taken. Anything that needs to be said and done henceforth will be from my legal department," Trisha said as the video of the AIADMK functionary named AV Raju went viral.

Meanwhile, AV Raju has given an apology to Trisha. He clarified that his remarks were misinterpreted by the media, stating, "I referred to a woman resembling actress Trisha, not the actress herself. I apologize to everyone in the film industry, including Trisha."
