Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], April 27 : The car of music composer James Vasanthan was allegedly vandalised by unidentified persons in Chennai, triggering a police investigation.

The incident reportedly took place in the Kottivakkam area on April 26, when the composer had stepped out for dinner at a restaurant.

Upon returning after his meal, he discovered that his car, which had been parked outside the eatery, had its window glass shattered.

James Vasanthan later recorded a video showing the damage and shared it on social media. In his post, he stated that he was uncertain whether the act was random vandalism or a targeted attack.

"I'm not sure whether this was an act of mischief or something deliberate when I went to a restaurant for lunch this afternoon," he wrote.
