Kasturi’s indirect dig at Rajini tests fans
Actress Kasturi is vocal about a lot of issues on her social media. Recently, she seemed to have mocked Rajinikanth’s tweet condemning the cops who had harassed the Kovilpattii Magistrate Bharathidasan. The superstar sported an angry yet determined look when he posted this on twitter:

Then a couple of hours later, Kasturi, without mentioning anyone, just said: “Maybe the photographer was available only today?”, perhaps also taking a dig at Rajini’s delayed reaction to the Sathankulam father-son Jayaraj and Felix custodial death.
Maybe the photographer was available only today ?

Fans of the superstar were quick to add up 1+1 and the reactions were swift. The actress’s recent photo from cyclone Gaja hit areas were mocked for wearing makeup and having a photographer. User Sowmiya had said “look who’s talking about photographers!”:

Then you had the nuanced folks like Naraasipriya and Chitti 3.0, who made loud contributions to the chorus. The former challenged the actress to “…ask this question when you meet him directly? Do you have guts? You cannot becoz you very well know your tweet is not true” and the latter made politics out of this discourse:
Yes, his photographer was kidnapped by DMK+MNM slaves like u. Fearing he might tweet this on first day itself u have kidnapped him by adhering to ur owner’s words @mkstalin and @ikamalhaasan. Since u have released his photographer he has raised his voice today. Sirippu varala di

When you stir the hornet’s nest of an incredibly popular star, the reactions will only pour in. We had Suresh tweeting “So u indirectly say that ppl who reacted before got their photographer at home mainly for publicity….what others say is purely politically based…thalaivar always understand first the issue, find out what has happened, then react…(not blind reaction just to get publicity)” and Naandanda Tamizhan yelling “People who reacted before always have their photographer , script or thundu cheetu writer , editor etc etc at home to shoot and upload in social networking sites.” The number of replies had tallied to more than 450.
