The actor reportedly has told his office to give him Rs. 1,47,000 towards his loan. The actor’s representative said that Vishal was distressed when he came to know that the farmer was beaten up.
“When big businessmen are being let off, he felt that it is not acceptable for police to manhandle farmers.”
