Gopi Nainar has condemned the social media abuse of director Pa Ranjith. The director was criticised for not wishing Gopi in his congratulatory tweet about the latter’s Aramm. The issue stems from a conflict over the content of Ranjith’s Madras. At the time of its release, it was alleged to be a copy of Gopi’s Karuppar Nagaram.
Now, in a press statement, Gopi has asked his supporters to stay silent and not attack Ranjith. He says that he shares a friendly relationship with Ranjith, and that they can only make the society better if they stand united. He asked his fans and supporters to not destroy that bond.
