Even as controversies continue to surround him, whether related to his films or personal life, Vijay remains focused on his political ambitions. The actor, who is also the chief of his party Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), recently addressed supporters during a campaign in Thanjavur on Wednesday. He urged citizens to give him a chance in the upcoming State Assembly elections while criticising Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M. K. Stalin and the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) government.

Speaking at a public rally in Thanjavur, Vijay referred to the controversy surrounding the release of his film Jana Nayagan, thanking Stalin for voicing support for the movie and acknowledging the widespread backing it received from the public.



“Listen to what I say- the next government will be a TVK government. Fishermen, remain hopeful; your protection will be fully ensured. During the release of the film Jana Nayagan, many people raised their voices in support. Even our Chief Minister voiced his support. I thank them for that. Chief Minister, you may try to silence me, but you cannot silence every Vijay in every household. They have already begun their campaign,” Vijay said.

Drawing parallels with cricket, Vijay criticised the DMK for framing the upcoming Assembly elections as “Team Delhi vs Team Tamil Nadu.” He asserted that even in cricket, the Delhi team cannot match Tamil Nadu, emphasising that “Tamil Nadu is TVK, and TVK is Tamil Nadu.” He added that such divisions would be set aside and that the TVK team would emerge victorious.

“Ahead of the upcoming Assembly elections, DMK members are projecting it as a contest between the Tamil Nadu team and the Delhi team. Even in cricket, the Delhi team cannot match the Tamil Nadu team. Tamil Nadu is TVK, and TVK is Tamil Nadu. All such divisions will be set aside — the TVK team will win,” Vijay said.

Canadian distributor shares update on Jana Nayagan release

The latest update regarding Jana Nayagan came not from the makers but from Canadian distributor York Cinemas. The statement was shared with the caption, “Important Announcement of Jananayagan. From York Cinemas Management.”

It read, “Dear Patrons, please note that the movie Jananayagan will not be releasing before April 30.
