Actor Vijay Deverakonda has found himself involved in a controversy after a complaint was filed against him at the SR Nagar police station in Hyderabad. The lawsuit, filed by a local lawyer Lal Chauhan, accuses Vijay Deverakonda of making offensive remarks about tribal groups during a recent Tamil film pre-release event.
Deverakonda, who attended the event as a chief guest alongside actor Suriya , allegedly drew parallels between the recent Pahalgam incident in Kashmir and a centuries-old tribal wars. According to Chauhan, this analogy was disrespectful and painted indigenous tribes in a bad light.
In the aftermath, several tribal organizations voiced strong objections, condemning the actor’s remarks and urging him to issue a public apology. They argue that his statement was not only inappropriate but also perpetuate harmful stereotypes about tribal heritage.
Police authorities in SR Nagar stated that they received the complaint and are analyzing it to decide the next steps, which will include a legal consultation. As of yet, Deverakonda has not issued a public statement on the topic. The matter has caused extensive discussion on social media, with many users demanding clarification and accountability from the actor.
