Actor-turned-politician Vijay, who recently launched his political party Tamilaga Vetri Kazhagam (TVK), has strongly opposed the implementation of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) in Tamil Nadu.
Recently, the Central Government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced the official notification of CAA rules, four years after the Act's passing by Parliament. This move has been met with significant criticism, including from opposition leaders like Vijay.
Taking to his party's official social media account, Vijay released a statement in Tamil condemning the CAA. The statement translates to: "It is not acceptable to implement any law like the Citizenship Amendment Act 2019 (CAA) in an environment where all citizens of the country live with social harmony. The leaders should ensure that this law does not get implemented in Tamil Nadu.”

It's important to note that Vijay's political party, TVK, has previously declared it will not contest the 2024 elections and will remain independent.
On the cinematic front, Vijay's latest film, the action-thriller Leo co-starring Sanjay Dutt and Trisha Krishnan, received a positive audience reception. He is currently filming his next project, tentatively titled Thalapathy 68, directed by Venkat Prabhu. Thalapathy has not signed any other project due to the beginning of his political career.
For the unversed, in February, Thalapathy Vijay officially announced the name of his political party as Tamilaga Vetri Kazham. In a statement, he said, "We are not going to contest the 2024 elections and we are not going to any party. We have made this decision at the General and Executive Council Meeting."
