'Vijay's Journey From Mass Hero To People's Leader Inspires Many': Bigil Co-Star Indraja Shankar

At a time when Vijay is working hard to form a government in Tamil Nadu, his Bigil co-star Indraja Shankar has come out in praise of him. In a recent interview, Shankar spoke about TVK’s big win in the Tamil Nadu assembly polls and said that Vijay’s journey from a hero to a leader is very inspiring.

“From mass hero to a people’s leader, Vijay sir’s journey inspires many. His vision reflects change, equality, and youth empowerment. He has always stood for strong values, both on and off screen,” she told Times Now.

Recalling the time they were shooting for Bigil, the actress added, “During Bigil, I noticed our coach’s respect for every individual on set. That same respect could shape him into a relatable Chief Minister. So happy for his victory.”

Vishal Also Comes Out In Vijay’s Support

Earlier today, Tamil actor Vishal also came in Vijay’s support amid the confusion regarding Tamil Nadu government formation. He took to his X handle and expressed disappointment with rumours of AIADMK being in talks with DMK. He mentioned that if Vijay’s TVK does not form a government in the state, it will be an ‘unimaginable’ situation.

“If it’s not #Tvk and if it’s going to be anything else but the unimaginable/shellshocking combination of DMK/AIADMK alliance to form the next government , then I as a citizen and voter foresee a disastrous and catastrophic consequential turnout amidst common public. Will not go down well with anyone,” he wrote.

What’s Happening In Tamil Nadu?

Even though Vijay’s TVK emerged as the single-largest party with 108 seats in the 234-member Tamil Nadu Assembly, it has not been able to form a government yet. Why? Because it remains 10 seats short of the majority mark of 118. Therefore, allying is necessary. Amid all this, reports of AIADMK in talks with DMK have also been making headlines. Meanwhile, Tamil Nadu governor Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar has asked Vijay to show majority numbers before forming a government.
