The movie criticised the Goods and Services Tax (GST) that did not go down well with the BJP. Tamil Nadu BJP chief Tamilisai Soundararajan and the party's national secretary H Raja strongly opposed it, claiming that some dialogues were "highly inappropriate". The film production house today said that if needed, it would delete scenes that have caused "misunderstanding".
Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi hit out at the BJP, asking Prime Minister Narendra Modi not to "interfere" and saying that cinema was a "deep expression" of Tamil culture.
