Is Cycle A Statement From Vijay?

Tamil star Vijay went to the voting booth located in Neelankarai, Chennai in a red and black coloured bicycle to cast his vote as Tamil Nadu went to polls today. Visuals of his cycling trip to the polling booth went viral on social media in no time. Many theories have been shared online as to why Vijay chose to cycle to the booth.

According to reports, Vijay came on a bicycle to protest against the rising prices of diesel and petrol. Like many actors in Tamil Nadu, Vijay is also willing to enter into politics. He will most probably float his political party before the next general elections in the state.

However, the actor's team clarified that the only reason Vijay decided to ride a cycle to the booth was because it was just one street away from his house. "There is only one reason why Thalapathy Vijay came by cycle to cast his vote. The booth is in the street behind his house. It's a narrow street, and it would be difficult to take the car there. There is no other reason for it," Vijay's team said.

Early on Tuesday, several noted celebrities arrived at polling booths for voting. Actor Ajith and his wife Shalini stood in a queue outside the polling booth as early as 6.40 am. Actor Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan, Suriya and Karthi were among those who were seen voting early morning on Tuesday.
