The 'lungi' of an AIADMK worker caught fire in Viluppuram, Tamil Nadu, on Wednesday as he tried to burn the effigy of Desiya Murpokku Dravida Kazhagam (DMDK) chief and Tamil film actor Vijayakanth.
Vijayakanth spat at the journalists on Sunday and dared them to ask AIADMK supremo J. Jayalalithaa similar questions about the upcoming assembly elections.
An AIADMK lawyer has also filed a complaint against Vijayakanth for insulting Jayalalithaa.
