Like Puratchi Thamizhan and Puratchi Kalaignar, Vishal gave himself the title of Puratchi Dalapathy. Bharath calls himself Chinna Dalapathy. This has irked the political Dalapathy and the Ilaya Dalapathy.
The craze for titles is coveted by comedians too. Even if they already have titles, they love to add a new suffix at any given opportunity.
Lodukku Karunaas became Comedy King Karunaas after 'Sadhu Mirandaa.' Along with his Vaigai Puyal title, Vadivelu has added Nagaichuvai Thilakam before his name.
This has irritated fans of Nadigar Thilakam Sivaji Ganesan and Makkal Thilakam MGR.
They contend that Vadivelu has no merit like those great stalwarts to title himself a Thilakam.
The fans are meeting together to convey their strong sense of disapproval to the Vaigai Puyal.
