The detailed statement shared by Vijay also mentioned his party’s ideologies and his exit from cinema. “According to me, politics is not just another job for me. It’s a sacred job. Not just political heights, I understood that I need to learn the length and breadth of politics from my predecessors. I am preparing myself for it mentally. So, politics is not a hobby. It’s my deepest desire. I want to involve myself completely. Hence, I will complete one more film that I committed to and become a full-fledged politician. This is how I’d pay my debts to the people of Tamil Nadu,” his statement reads.
After his recent appearance in Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Leo, Vijay is currently filming Venkat Prabhu’s highly anticipated project, Greatest of All Time (GOAT”). This big-budget film promises to be a major theatrical release later this year.
