Actor
Vishal
who
is
known
for
being
vocal
and
taking
a
stand
on
political
issues
has
now
become
the
talk
of
the
town,
after
he
expressed
his
support
to
Bollywood
actress
Kangana
Ranaut.
The
actress
who
has
currently
locked
horns
with
the
ruling
party
in
Maharashtra,
was
appreciated
by
the
Irumbu
Thirai
actor
through
his
social
media
handle.
Comparing
her
to
the
legendary
freedom
fighter
Bhagat
Singh,
Vishal
tweeted,
"Dear
Kangana.
Hats
off
to
your
guts,
you
have
never
thought
twice
to
voice
out
what
is
right
and
what
is
wrong.
It
wasn't
your
personal
issue,
but
even
then
facing
the
wrath
of
the
government
you
stayed
strong
which
makes
it
a
very
big
example.
It
is
something
similar
to
what
Bhagat
Singh
did
in
the
1920s."
Vishal
further
added
that
her
action
will
set
an
example
for
many,
especially
common
man,
to
speak
against
the
government
if
they
are
on
the
wrong
side.
He
said,
"This
will
set
an
example
for
people
to
speak
against
the
government
when
something
is
not
right
and
not
necessarily
being
a
celebrity
but
also
as
a
common
man.
Kudos
to
you.
I
bow
to
you." The
appreciation
note
ended
with,
"Freedom
of
Speech
(Article
19)"
written
in
boldface.
The
actor's
response
is
receiving
mixed
responses
on
social
media,
with
several
supporting
and
others
criticizing
the
Paayum
Puli
star.
Well,
let
us
tell
you
that
this
is
not
the
first
time
Vishal
has
expressed
his
views
on
a
serious
issue.
Earlier,
he
had
spoken
against
the
Jallikattu
festival
(annual
bull-taming
festival
of
Tamil
Nadu).
Coming
back
to
Kangana
Ranaut,
recently,
her
office
was
demolished
by
Mumbai's
civic
body
BMC
(Brihanmumbai
Municipal
Corporation)
after
a
legal
notice
was
issued,
calling
it
an
'illegal
alterations'.
Soon
after
her
visit
to
the
state,
the
actress
shared
a
video
wherein
she
was
seen
hitting
out
at
Maharashtra
Chief
Minister
Uddhav
Thackeray.
Talking
about
her
work,
Kangana
will
next
be
seen
essaying
one
of
the
most
celebrated
Chief
Ministers
of
Tamil
Nadu,
late
Jayalalithaa
in
Thalaivi.
She
has
also
announced
films
on
Ayodhya
and
Kashmir.
