Vijay talks about Jana Nayagan controversy and political inspiration

Vijay talks about Jana Nayagan controversy and political inspiration. Jana Nayagan which happens to be Vijay's last film is embroiled in censor board controversy. Many feel he is unduly targeted as he entered politics and as TVK chief is set to strike in the Tamil Nadu assembly elections.

In the meantime, Vijay shared his thoughts on Jana Nayagan controversy and his inspiration. NDTV Editor in Chief Rahul Kanwal says  “He’s (Vijay) made up his mind, he’s given up films. This is his future. He feels bad for his producer, who is suffering on account of Jana Nayagan not getting released. His films could get targeted on account of his presence in politics, is something he was totally prepared for mentally.”

He continued  “He says I look up to Shah Rukh Khan; he speaks so well. His articulation, his elocution is very high. I used to see him, and I used to think, look at how well spoken this guy is. He also spoke of how MGR and Jayalalithaa have been role models for him, along with Karunanidhi. He’s looked to them as stars, as models of what they were able to achieve.”
