Superstar Rajinikanth recently tasted blockbuster success with Jailer which happened to be a monstrous success at the box office. He is now back at it with Vettaiyan which is set for release on the 10th of this month.
A day before the release, this film has triggered Telugu viewers and here is the reason why.
Many Telugu netizens are finding fault with the fact that the makers didnt put in any efforts to give the film a new name in Telugu. They arent quite sure what the name “Vettaiyan” means in Telugu.
While the tag “Boycott Vettaiyan” is trending now, a Telugu Twitter user commented “
Please tell us the meaning of ‘Vettayan’ in Telugu! You are releasing the Telugu version with a Tamil title. Isn’t this an my imposition of Tamil on us? We know how your industry and audience would react if a Hindi film’s dubbed version was released in Tamil Nadu with a Hindi title.
Though I’m an ardent fan of Superstar @rajinikanth , I will not watch this film for insulting the Telugu people. Apologise to the telugu audience and change the title, or else we’ll Boycott the film!”.
