Vijay's flick 'Sarkar' kicked up a row with the ruling AIADMK, as a scene showed freebies being thrown into fire. The party had objected to a woman character, saying it was a reference to late chief minister J Jayalalithaa and her welfare schemes.

Sarkar producer Sun Pictures has removed the scene, bowing down to the pressure.
