Vijay Thalapathy a popular face from the South Indian film industry, has been once called out by the court for not paying tax on her luxurious imported car. Rolls Royce Ghost.
The Madras high court said that such a reputed actor is “expected to pay tax promptly and punctually,” and who are seen as heroes can’t be just heroes onscreen but also off the screen.
Justice S M Subramaniam said, “In a state like Tamil Nadu, where such actors have become rulers, they are not expected to behave like a ‘reel hero’.Tax evasion is to be construed as an anti-national habit, attitude and mindset and unconstitutional,” as quoted by TOI.
