It is not new for Vishal to be rumoured with actresses working with him. But this time, he has been linked with an actress with whom he hasn’t worked so far and the grapevine is spreading like a wildfire in the industry.

It is said that Vishal & Varalaxmi (daughter of ace actor Sarathkumar, who is making her acting debut with Simbu-starrer ‘Poda Podi‘) are seeing each for some time now and they are serious about their relationship.

However, reports have it that Vishal‘s father and veteran producer G.K Reddy is against his son’s affair, since he is not in good terms with Sarathkumar, after a fall out that happened during the making of a film.

But Vishal‘s answer is a big no to these reports. Asked him about the alleged affair, he said, “I know Varalaxmi for more than two decades and we are very good friends. That doesn’t mean we are in love.”
