'Setting wrong example': Producer seemingly slams Vijay, Trisha's alleged relationship
What's the story
Tamil film producer G Dhananjheyan has apparently criticized actors Vijay and Trisha for setting a "wrong example" with their alleged relationship. His comments came after the actors were spotted at a function together on Thursday night, seemingly confirming their long-rumored romance. Without naming them directly, he took to X to express his discontent, saying influential public figures are sending the wrong message to society.
Celebrity influence
He quoted a famous 'Spider-Man' dialogue
In his post, Dhananjheyan quoted a famous dialogue from the 2002 film Spider-Man, stressing that fame comes with responsibility. He wrote, "With great power/popularity comes great responsibility." "People with huge popularity carry great responsibility to set a good example for common people on how to lead an honest and respectful life for them to follow. When that's ignored, everyone loses their respect for them."
Personal impact
He is 'personally disturbed' by the situation
Dhananjheyan confessed that he was personally disturbed by the situation, particularly because public figures influence millions of followers. He wrote, "Being a strong family-oriented person, I am disturbed by a few leading actors setting wrong example [through] their acts, for their millions of fans and followers." He also commented on the legal and moral aspects of relationships, saying a family man must first come out of marriage legally before living with someone else.
Societal concern
'Don't normalize any other way of living'
Dhananjheyan concluded with a broader warning about the societal impact of such behavior. He said, "Don't normalize any other way of living. It will destroy our society if such a behavior being followed by all." "This is for all actors who are indulging in such acts, not just for one or two." His remarks have sparked debates online, with some supporting his concerns while others stating that celebrities' personal lives should remain private.
