In a recent turn of events, the Tamil film industry has become a battleground for political ideologies, with two of its biggest stars, Vijay and Rajinikanth, expressing contrasting views on the contentious Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA). As Thalapathy Vijay, who recently launched his political party Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), urges the Tamil Nadu government not to implement the CAA, a four-year-old video of Rajinikanth backing the Act has resurfaced and gone viral.
Vijay’s statement, which emphasizes the importance of maintaining social harmony, has been met with mixed reactions. While his fans have lauded his stance, others have critiqued him for not being politically sharp enough. In contrast, Rajinikanth’s video from years prior shows him supporting the CAA, reassuring that Muslims in India need not fear and that he would be the first to voice concerns should they face any trouble.
This juxtaposition of opinions has sparked a heated debate among fans and political commentators alike. Journalist Savukku Shankar, addressing Vijay, suggested that sharper political statements are necessary to make a significant impact.
The viral video of Rajinikanth has added fuel to the fire, with his fans sharing it widely as a counterpoint to Vijay’s recent remarks. Rajinikanth had previously attacked certain parties for misleading the public for political gains and had stated that the government has assured that Indian citizens will not face issues due to the CAA.
