The concept of toxic paid campaigns and cancel culture has been rampant in the film industry across languages. Yami Gautam had voiced her opinion against such trends when Dhurandhar was about to release and negative reviews started doing the rounds. Nevertheless, the film went on to become a mega blockbuster. Now, Sundeep Kishan, who is gearing up for the release of Sigma, the directorial debut of Vijay's son Jason Sanjay, has spoken about the 'anti-tweets' coming his way and targeting his film.
Taking to X, he wrote, "I see a lot of targeted anti-tweets coming at me and my film over the last few days. Lol. I know exactly the people behind this and who's paying for it as well. Just reminding you that you have more to lose than me."
