Interestingly, the actor politely ignored his parents while greeting the guest at the Varisu audio launch recently. The video went going viral on social media platforms. 

Vijay's relationship with his father soured after the latter tried to register Vijay's fan club as a political party under All India Thalapathy Vijay Makkal Iyakkam with the Election Commission of India. The move irked the actor who distanced himself from his father's political turn. He also released a firm statement saying that there is no relation between him and his father's political ambitions. The actor also filed a civil lawsuit against 11 persons, including his father SA Chandrasekar and his mother Shoba regarding the same.

On the work front, Vijay's Varisu is all set to clash with archrival Ajith's Thunivu for this Pongal.
