Udhayanidhi Stalin, Vijay, Trisha Controversy

On Monday, a video of Stalin went viral on social media, in which, during his speech on the Cauvery water issue, he said, “Our CM is not opening his mouth about the Cauvery water issue. He's more worried about putting false cases on the DMK.”

In the audience, a few people shouted Trisha's name, so Stalin said, “Water comes or not, the water should come. I meant the Cauvery.”

His statement didn't go down well with many netizens, and they started slamming him on social media. Netizens accused Stalin of making a double-entendre remark about Vijay and Trisha.

Complaint Against Udhayanidhi Stalin

According to reports, Vijay's party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), filed a formal police complaint and approached the National Commission for Women, calling the remarks objectifying and insulting to women. The FIR was registered at Thanjavur East Police Station under Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) provisions, the Tamil Nadu Prohibition of Harassment of Women Act, and the Information Technology Act.

Till now, neither Vijay nor Trisha has reacted to the whole controversy.
