While Vijay Sethupathi has already exited Muttiah Muralitharan's biopic, 800, netizens are still upset about his decision. But that no way gives them any right to threaten his family members. A Twitter user recently gave rape threats to his daughter on the social media site and this is clearly not a sign of a healthy society.

The actress in her tweets has slammed the Twitter user while also asking why women and children have to pay a price when adults fight like hyenas? 800: Vijay Sethupathi Exits Muttiah Muralitharan's Biopic after the Cricketer Asked Him to Quit Following the Backlash.
