Vijay’s party, TVK, triggered a major shift in Tamil Nadu politics by outperforming the two long-dominant Dravidian parties, DMK and AIADMK.
TVK secured 108 seats and later garnered the backing of 12 MLAs from other parties to gain majority in the 234-member Assembly.
‘Jana Nayagan’, Vijay’s final film before he embarked on full-time political journey, was scheduled to hit theatres on January 9 but faced delays as it did not receive certification from the CBFC.
The film also stars Mamitha Baiju, Pooja Hegde and Bobby Deol in key roles.
Meanwhile, directed by Buchi Babu Sana and produced by Venkata Satish Kilaru under Vriddhi Cinemas, co-produced by Ishan Saksena under IVY Entertainment and presented by Mythri Movie Makers and Sukumar Writings, ‘Peddi’ stars Ram Charan, Janhvi Kapoor, Shiva Rajkumar, Jagapathi Babu, Divyenndu and Boman Irani.
The film is slated to hit theatres on June 4.
