Vadivelu had been banned from films after issues in the movie Imsai Arasan 24am Pulikecei directed by Chimbudeven and there have been various accusations against him. Now, Vadivelu has filed a complaint against two actors to Nadigar Sangam special officer.

Vadivelu has filed a complaint against actors Manobala and Singamuthu, stating that, Manobala had hosted an interview with Singamuthu for his YouTube channel, and in the interview, Singamuthu had given wrong information defaming Vadivelu, and also shared the video link across actors association WhatsApp groups. Vadivelu has said that the wrong news about him in the video has mentally affected him, and has demanded action to be taken by Nadigar Sangam on both Manobala and Singamuthu.
