Vijay Thinks Too Highly of Himself: BJP On TVK Chief's Bouncers Assaulting Fan In Madurai

Tamil Nadu BJP leader Tamilisai Soundararajan has slammed actor-turned-politician Vijay allegedly over his bouncers assaulting a fan at the recent second conference of Tamilaga Vettri Kazham in Madurai.

Tamilisai Slams Vijay

Speaking to ANI, BJP leader Tamilisai Soundararajan said, "...It's very unfortunate. If he is entering politics, he should behave like a politician, not an actor... He should act respectfully, and mutual respect between the leader and the cadre should be maintained. He should not behave as if people are coming to see his movie. This kind of attitude is highly condemnable. Vijay thinks too highly of himself... If he is serious about politics, he should act like a politician..."

Based on a complaint from Sarathkumar at the Perambalur District SP Office alleging he was manhandled by TVK Chief Vijay's bouncers, Kunnam Police have registered a case against TVK Chief Vijay and bouncers under three sections, Kunnam Police Official, Perambalur District, told the news agency.

In a viral video, the bouncers are seen pushing down a fan off the ramp as the actor enters the venue to address the large gathering. Also, a few tried to get closer to him but the bouncers protected the TVK chief.

As per a report in NDTV, the case has been filed against Vijay and his bouncers under sections 189(2), 296(B) and 115(I) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.

Vijay Attacks Modi, Stalin

Vijay launched a blistering attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin while addressing his party's second state-level conference in Madurai, last Thursday.

Vijay accused the BJP-led central government of targeting Muslim minorities, neglecting Tamil Nadu's fishermen, and attempting to suppress the cultural and historical identity of the state.
The TVK president declared the BJP as his party's "ideological enemy" and the DMK as its "political enemy," vowing that the 2026 Assembly election would be a straight contest between TVK and DMK.

Taking direct aim at Chief Minister Stalin, Vijay mocked him with a sharp jibe: "Stalin uncle, what uncle, it's very wrong, uncle." He accused the ruling party of misgovernance, corruption, and betraying women, farmers, and government employees with broken election promises.
