The actor Vijay's side filed a complaint in the chennai High court alleging that the judge's statements personally insulted him and made him appear guilty in a matter involving the payment of tax on an imported automobile. In 2012, Vijay purchased a Rolls Royce Coast premium car from the United Kingdom. When the Regional Transportation office approached the vehicle to register it, the vehicle was told that it needed to pay an entry tax. Following this, Vijay's plea was dismissed by chennai High court Special Judge SM Subramaniam, who sought an injunction prohibiting him from levying entrance tax because he had already paid the import tax when the car was imported.


The judge also fined actor Vijay one lakh rupees, noting that performers should pay their taxes on time and be real heroes rather than fictional ones. Actor Vijay has filed an appeal in the High court, appealing the single judge's order imposing the punishment and asking for the criticisms in the single judge's verdict to be removed. The matter was considered by the supreme court, which issued an interim injunction and a fine of one lakh rupees.


Vijay's counsel also argued that the judge had no right to criticise the car because it had been earned through hard work. Vijay's side contended that the film industry employs millions of people and that he has no intention of evading taxes and is suing together with others. It was pointed out that calling himself an anti-national was incorrect, and that the judge's remarks were not made in any other case. It was contended that the supreme court had stated that judges should not make harsh remarks and that, in some situations, the court could scrutinise and comment on the individual who had deceived them. Vijay further stated that he could face legal action if the tax collection was unconstitutional.


It was criticised that similar statements were made in public, not only in this case but also in the cases of stars dhanush and Surya, that these comments were personally hurtful and represented as criminal. It was emphasised that paying a fine of one lakh was not an issue, and he was willing to pay Rs.2 crore, but the unfavourable perception should be eradicated. The case was then adjourned again by a bench of Justices Pushpa Satyanarayana and Mohammad Shafiq.
