Multifaceted T Rajendar held a press meet today, 13th of September in Chennai. While speaking at the event, he was asked if Rajini and Kamal would join politics, his reply was, "Rajinikanth is a very close friend of mine, similarly when super actor Kamal Haasan, had a problem during Vishwaroopam's release, I immediately sent my son Simbu to show my support.
Likewise, when Thalapathy Vijay had an issue during Thalaivaa, the moment my son, Simbu got to know about it, he tweeted saying, 'Thamizha, engal anna, thalaivaa, I will be there for you no matter what problem it is.' Appidinu sonnadhu Silambarasan endra thambi ana Vijay illa Silambarasan ah nambi.
That is why when Simbu had a problem during Vaalu's release, Vijay and his associate PT Selvakumar stood by us. That is why I ran in support of Vijay during Puli's release issue. I personally like Puli (Tiger). That is why I went to Puli audio launch function and gave that viral speech.
So when an unknown face could enter politics why not films stars? Anyone from the movie industry can become a politician."
Director Cheran had posted yesterday (11th September), that he wouldn't appreciate Vijay for visiting Anitha's house as he felt that it is rather that star's responsibility than anything else. Looks like this post from him had been well received by Vijay fans on social media.
The acclaimed director took to Twitter again this evening (12th Sept) to thank all for the love and support. He posted, "அனிதா வீட்டுக்குசென்ற விஜய்க்கு உணர்வுரீதியாக பதிவுட்டேன். விஜய்ரசிகர்கள் எனக்கு நன்றிசொல்லிக்கொண்டே இருக்கீங்க.சொல்லவேண்டியது விஜய்க்குத்தான"
This tweet is roughly translated as "I registered my post about Vijay out of mere respect and emotion. Vijay fans have been continuously thanking me. You shouldn't actually thank me, but Vijay. "
