GST Row: Kamal extends support to Vijay!
X
The controversy over the dig taken at Goods and Services Tax (GST) in Vijay-starrer 'Mersal' kept getting bigger. Pressure has been mounted on the makers to chop off those dialogues.

Vijay received support from unexpected quarters. It's none other than Kamal Haasan who backed 'Mersal' Team and advised the haters to come up with a logical response rather than demanding removal of satires. 'Don't silence critics. India will shine when it speaks. Mersal was certified. Don't re-censor it. Counter criticism with logical response,' he tweeted.

Whereas, Tamil Nadu BJP Leaders have been projecting the politically-loaded dialogues as an attempt to misguide and defame the country. They opined Vijay drawing comparisons between GST of India and Singapore doesn't make sense. 'Singapore's Health Policy - 10 percent of income will be taken as savings and the same will be used for Insurance,' says BJP Spokesperson.

In 'Mersal', Vijay's Character comments Singapore offers free health treatment by charging 7 percent GST but Indians get nothing even after paying 28 percent GST.
