Thalapathy Vijay, one of India’s highest-paid performers, recently had a run-in with the cops after reportedly breaking traffic rules to escape fans chasing his car. The actor was coming home after meeting members of his political organisation, Vijay Makkal Iyakkam (VMI), in Chennai.
Vijay is well-known for his outstanding performances in Tamil films such as “Thuppakki,” “Mersal,” “Kaththi,” and “Master.”
According to sources, Vijay ignored the red light at more than two locations, prompting the traffic police to issue a challan and a Rs 500 punishment. Fans trailed the actor from Panaiyur to his residence in Neelangarai.

According to reports, Vijay has decided to make a grand political entry after the reigning superstar of the Tamil film industry, Rajinikanth, backed out at the last minute after serious discussions with the BJP leadership, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah.
Vijay is said to have examined the bylaws of both Dravidian parties, the DMK and the AIADMK, and has instructed his strategists to establish the new party’s bylaws by combining the essence of the two Dravidian parties. It may be recalled that Vijay’s supporters ran as Independents in the 2021 rural body elections.
Vijay will be seen next in the movie ‘Leo’ directed by Logesh Kanagaraj who has created big films like ‘Vikram’ and ‘Master’. The movie will be released in October 2023, and it was shot in Jammu & Kashmir. The film also stars Sanjay Dutt and Trisha Krishnan.
