What's the background?
A huge debate kicked off online after Vijay Sethupathi spoke about leadership on Bigg Boss, with many feeling it was a dig at actor Vijay. VJS said, 'Making promises without knowing what leadership is, and then blaming your opponent and running away when trouble comes, is not leadership.' Many netizens felt this was an indirect attack on actor Vijay. Supporters of Tamizhaga Vetri Kazhagam are alleging that VJS is indirectly attacking Vijay to please the DMK.

Fan Wars
Vijay's fans point out that Vijay Sethupathi didn't even congratulate Vijay when he launched his political party. But, VJS's fans are arguing that he was only talking about what happened inside the Bigg Boss house and people shouldn't give it a political colour. In the first week, house captain Shadhika gave up her post because she couldn't handle the accusations from others. VJS was referring to this incident, which has now become a massive talking point.
Vijay Sethupathi and Vijay worked together in the movie 'Master', where VJS played the villain, Bhavani, brilliantly. It's worth noting that during the film's release, when VJS's name was left off a poster, it was Vijay who insisted on adding it. Vijay Sethupathi even gave Vijay his signature kiss on the 'Master' shooting spot.
