Thalapathy Vijay's safety point towards his fan
Tamil superstar Joseph Vijay Chandrasekhar (lovely known as Thalapathy Vijay) returned from Kodaikanal to Madurai after filming his last film before full-time politics, Jana Nayagan, when shocking events took place. When an elderly fan tried to violate his safety and met the star, one of Vijay's security guards drew their guns and pointed at the excited fans. Videos of the incident have now become a hit on social media.
In the clip, the Leo actor was seen taking a black car to the airport with a convoy. As he walked out of the vehicle, his security officers covered him as they saw a group of people gathered there and caught a glimpse of the star. As Vijay heads to the airport entrance, an old man appears from behind and tries to run towards the actor. The actor's security guard immediately stopped him, who pointed the gun at him, thinking he was a potential threat. The Messal actor didn't realize what was going on behind him and headed towards the main gate.
Now, according to The Times, when the media asked older fans about the incident, he said: “The gun was to protect Thalapathy Vijay, but even if I was shot at that time, I would be happy to take it for my thalapathy.”
