Thalapathy Vijay
Tamil actor Vijay, popularly known as Thalapathy Vijay, entered politics last year, and the actor makes sure to address his fans every time he hosts a rally or conference. This time, there was an event at Maanaadu, and a sea of fans thronged the venue to catch a glimpse of the star. In the midst of chaos, Vijay spotted a fan hanging from the railing to hand him a book and get a glimpse of him. Here is how the star reacted.
At the Maanadu event, a video captured Vijay walking down a long ramp through a massive crowd on his way to the stage. In the clip, a fan is seen hanging from a railing while holding a book, as police and security personnel attempt to pull him down to safety. When Vijay notices the fan, he pauses to help, but instead, the fan quickly hands him the book, which the actor accepts before continuing forward. The same video also shows another overexcited fan breaking through security, grabbing Vijay by the shoulders, and jumping in excitement before being escorted away.
