Smaller political parties are watching actor Vijay’s next move after he began making overt manoeuvres such as organising an event to felicitate State-level student toppers and urging them ‘not to take cash and vote’ in elections.
Recently when asked to comment on Vijay’s speech, Mr. Thirumavalavan bluntly said the incessant discussion about his political plunge must not stand in the way of discussions on more serious issues such as the ongoing crisis in Manipur and other topics of national importance. He urged the media to be responsible.
Similarly, PMK president Anbumani Ramadoss recently urged actor Vijay to ‘walk the talk’, asking whether he would be ready to follow the path and ideology laid down by Periyar E. V. Ramasamy, Dr. Ambedkar and Kamaraj, rather than just dropping their names in his speeches.
