Earlier last month (February), actor Vijay was part of the consequential search of the Income Tax raid that took place for financier/producer Anbu Chezhiyan and the production house AGS Entertainment. The search resulted with the seizure of unaccounted cash of about Rs 77 crore, from the properties belonging to the financier.
Reportedly, the IT department gave Vijay a clean chit and ended the search. And today, the IT officials visited Vijay's house to remove the ‘Prohibition order’ that was earlier issued by the team when they had conducted the raid at the actor’s residence.
While this visit from the IT department created various rumours initially, the fans are relieved as what really happened has come to light. Now, reportedly, the IT department has released the details regarding the raid that also discloses the salary of the actor.
According to reports, Vijay has received a salary of Rs 50 crore for Bigil, and for the upcoming film Master, the actor is said to have received Rs 80 crore as salary and Vijay has paid proper tax for both the films in their respective financial year. Official reports from the IT department is awaited.
