According to Thalapathy Vijay, his mentor, Vijayakanth, can draw both a mass and a class audience

Actor Vijayakanth, the head of the Desiya Murpokku Dravida Kazhagam (DMDK) party in Tamil Nadu, died away on December 28 at the age of 71. The celebration said that he was suffering from respiratory problems and had received a diagnosis of Covid-19. At the party headquarters in Chennai, the last ceremonies were held on December 29th in the evening. An old video of Thalapathy Vijay discussing Vijayakanth is doing the rounds on the internet. Vijay discussed the difference between mass and class audiences in the previous clip, emphasizing how important it is for an actor and their audience to be in sync. He emphasized how important it is for an actor to connect with both kinds of viewers, pointing to Vijayakanth as an example of a hero who is loved by a wide range of people.

Vijay also spoke about playing Vijayakanth’s brother in the 1993 movie Senthoorapandi. This was Vijay’s second film, and SA Chandrasekhar, his father, was the director. He acknowledged that the film’s critical and commercial success was crucial in bringing him to the public’s attention. There is now a speech from Thalapathy Vijay going around the internet.

When Thalapathy Vijay was coming from Chennai, where he had paid respect to Vijayakanth, he encountered an unexpected situation. He can be seen strolling through a throng of admirers in a widely shared video when a slipper is thrown at him and hits him. The viral footage on social media shows the popular Tamil actor making his way past a sizable throng to get to his vehicle. According to media accounts, during this exchange, a mob member made an effort to kiss Thalapathy Vijay’s hand.

As seen in the video, Thalapathy Vijay carried on after the incident without turning around. Vijay’s companion struck back, tossing the slipper back in the direction of its origin. There is yet no verified information on the attacker during Thursday’s memorial service. Social media users have expressed sympathy for the superstar and worry about celebrities being at danger from the disorderly crowd, after the event, which has drawn global criticism.
