Actor-turned-politician Vijay has hit a major roadblock in his Chennai election trail. The TVK (Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam) chief was forced to call off his highly anticipated campaigns in Villivakkam and T. Nagar on Monday, April 6. The party claims that local authorities and police squeezed their schedule so tightly—cutting some sessions down to just one hour—that it became impossible to actually meet the voters. TVK leaders are calling this a deliberate move to block Vijay’s momentum, even threatening to take the issue straight to the Election Commission.
This sudden cancellation comes at a high-stakes moment, with the Tamil Nadu polls set for April 23. While the police cited logistical constraints and the need to manage massive crowds, Vijay’s team sees it as “unfair treatment” compared to the state’s established political giants. As the star-politician tries to position himself as a powerful third force against the DMK and AIADMK alliances, these “police curbs” have only added more fuel to the fiery political drama unfolding across the state.
