Chiyaan Vikram's Veera Dheera Sooran Lands In Legal Trouble Over Violent Poster

Tamil actor Vikram, popularly known as Chiyaan Vikram, recently released the title poster and teaser of his upcoming movie Veera Dheera Sooran. It is directed by SU Arun Kumar, with background music by GV Prakash Kumar. The makers released the teaser of the film on the occasion of Vikram’s birthday. It was followed by the title poster of the film, which is now receiving a backlash for promoting the violent content. A complaint has been filed with the Chennai Police Commissioner’s office that the Veera Dheera Sooran poster is inciting violence among the youth. The viral title poster of Veera Dheera Sooran showcases Chiyaan Vikram in action, as he holds knives in both his hands. Dead bodies can be seen scattered behind him. In the complaint filed by social activist Selvam, the impact of violent content on social media on youth has been mentioned.

It said that police earlier took action against clips or reels of youth cutting cakes with knives. These were circulating on social media, and said to be inciting violence among youth. Now, Chiyaan Vikram poster holding knives in both hands is said to incite violence. Selvam has demanded action against Chiyaan Vikram and SU Arun Kumar under the Information Technology Prevention Act.

Chiyaan Vikram movies are festivals for his fans. His upcoming movie Veera Dheera Sooran will be released in two parts. The teaser for part two of the movie has been released, which has confused the fans further.

The nearly four-minute teaser opens with a voiceover discussing a particular area known for a past incident, now avoided by people. A group of men are shown lurking near a grocery shop, evidently plotting something against a man there. When the goons confront them, Vikram appears wielding a gun and starts shooting at them, revealing the title Veera Dheera Sooran. Promised to be an action thriller, the teaser of the movie is now going viral.

Chiyaan Vikram will also be seen next in Pa Ranjith’s Thangalaan and Gautham Vasudev Menon’s Spy Action thriller titled Dhruva Natchathiram: Chapter One
