Simbu’s Support for Vijay’s ‘Jana Nayagan’
Silambarasan TR, aka Simbu, has spoken out in support of actor-politician Vijay and his film Jana Nayagan amid CBFC censorship issues.
Simbu on Vijay’s Legacy and Political Aspirations
Elaborating on his support for the actor-politician, he added, “He has been in this industry for so many years and has worked in a film for one last time. I put up a post supporting him, as the film should come out. I neither know politics nor have the relevant experience in it. I am also not the right person to speak about it. I wish him the best for his upcoming political endeavours and his future.”
In January, when the film faced a setback, Simbu had written on X (formerly Twitter), “Dear Vijay anna, setbacks have never stopped you. You’ve crossed bigger storms than this. This too shall pass, real Thiruvizha (festival) begins on the day Jana Nayagan releases.”
Simbu’s Upcoming Projects in Tamil Cinema
Last seen in Mani Ratnam’s Thug Life with Kamal Haasan, Simbu will soon star in Vetrimaaran’s Arasan, which is from the Vada Chennai universe. The film also stars Vijay Sethupathi and Andrea Jeremiah. He will also shoot for a yet-to-be-titled film with Ashwath Marimuthu.
Simbu’s support arrives during a critical period for Vijay and ‘Jana Nayagan.’ He believes the film deserves to be released, demonstrating solidarity within the Tamil film industry and wishing Vijay success in his future endeavors.
