Megastars Mahesh Babu and Vijay’s fans have been showing rage and anger towards each other on Twitter. They have bombarded the microblogging site with mean comments, memes and are leaving no stone unturned to brutally troll the opposition. For all those thinking why this has been happening on social media, let us tell you how it all started. For the unversed, Mahesh Babu’s superhit films Okkadu and Pokiri were remade in Tamil as Ghilli and Pokkiri starring Thalapathy Vijay as the lead actor. Interestingly, these films also became massive successes at the box office. Recently, Vijay’s fans claimed that his remakes were better than Mahesh Babu’s original films.
This led to several objectionable hashtags that started trending on Twitter, including ‘National Troll Material Vijay’,’Vijay Bots Under MB Fans’ Foot’, and many more. Hitting at Mahesh Babu’s fans, the Beast actor’s fans started trends like ‘Boycott Gay Mahesh Babu.’
Mahesh Babu’s work front
The South superstar was last seen in the hit Telegu film ‘Sarkaru Vaari Paata’. The movie also starred Keerthy Suresh and was directed by Parasuram Petla. It was released in theatres on May 12. In the film, Mahesh played the role of a US-based money lender, who travels to India for personal reasons.
But, as the story proceeds further, he is drawn into a woman’s life, who has suffered from the nexus between politicians and banking officials. He then takes a pledge to help the woman and ends up fixing the banking system in the country. Jointly produced by Mythri Movie Makers, 14 Reels Plus, and GMB Entertainment, the film is billed to be a commercial drama.
Vijay’s upcoming films
Thalapathy Vijay is busy working on Vamsi Paidipally’s directorial Varisu. The film will also star Rashmika Mandanna in the female lead. Prabhu, Sarath Kumar, Prakash Raj, Jayasudha, Srikanth, Shaam, Yogi Babu, Sangeetha, and Samyuktha are also a part of the film.
