Actor Vishal, who recently held the position of President of the Tamil Film Producers Council, has been accused of misusing the organisation's funds. According to a report by India Glitz, the council alleged that Vishal misappropriated Rs 12 crore, leading to significant financial losses. In their statement, the council urged producers and technicians working with Vishal to consult with them regarding these allegations.

In response to the allegations against him, Vishal took to social media to deny misusing funds and affirmed his commitment to continuing his film career. On platform X, he stated, "Don't u know that it is a collective decision which includes the person in your team,“Mr kathiresan” and the funds were used for the welfare works of the old/struggling members of the producers council that includes providing education, medical insurance and basic welfare during the festivals which benefited the council members and their families. Do your jobs rightly and there is so much to work for the industry. Vishal will always continue to do films. Try and stop me, all u so called producers who haven't and will never produce films."

Vishal was last seen in the film ‘Rathnam’, directed by Hari, which received mixed reviews. He is now set to make his directorial debut with ‘Thupparivalan 2’, a sequel to the detective thriller by Mysskin. Following creative differences, Vishal took on the directorial role himself. Filming began in London a few months ago, with more details to come.
