What was the tweet?
The tweet was directed directly to Venkat Prabhu by Sathyan Ramasamy. He wrote: “Dear @vp_offl brother, @actorvijay sir, after his pathetic debut in 2023 with 2 back drops, he is expecting at least a good comeback in 2024. So if you are really planning any remakes then I assume he is not suitable for Hollywood. The film is being remade, because neither #AjithKumar nor @urstrulyMahesh will make it.Sathyan often posts critical tweets against Vijay.
“But then when you see his filmography, he has continued in this field only with some good Telugu remakes. So a fraternal suggestion is to buy a good Telugu film and remake it. If you are still sure about a Hollywood remake, at least please refrain from including Desperate #ThalapathyVijay elements (fake groan gestures, unnatural father/sister feelings, strong romances and kisses) in your film. He added, “Vijay & Team will force you to do all this wow, just politely ask them to remember their previous outing #Leo which became half A new version of Hollywood.” “But rest assured this time, neither @rajinikanth fans nor #AK fans will interfere in your #GOAT, because we adore and respect you so much. Wishing you a happy and healthy 2024 sir.
