Jana Nayagan is currently in theatres, and Vijay fans are treating this as a day of celebration. The film opened to houseful early-morning shows on its first day, and that’s when fans were greeted with a surprise. Vijay’s character was introduced to the big screen as TN CM.
Vijay’s introduction scene in Jana Nayagan
Vijay appeared on the big screen after a brief prologue. His face appeared with the words “Tamil Nadu Chief Minister”. Along with it was an animated version of his iconic hand gesture moment at the TN Assembly, during the motion of thanks to the Governor’s address. Take a look at fans’ X posts here:
Vijay’s hand gesture in Assembly Elections
A tense moment unfolded in the Tamil Nadu Assembly in June after Vijay made a hand gesture during his speech that many social media users compared to a viral gesture previously made by DMK leader and former Chief Minister M.K. Stalin. As Vijay made the gesture, MLAs from the treasury benches applauded. However, it is not clear whether the chief minister was deliberately referencing Stalin’s viral moment or if it was simply a spontaneous gesture while addressing the House.
The incident took place during the motion of thanks to the Governor’s address. The proceedings soon turned heated as DMK leaders repeatedly interrupted Vijay’s speech and accused the ruling Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) government of political opportunism.
Despite repeated requests from Speaker JCD Prabhakar and members of the ruling party to let the chief minister continue, the standoff escalated. The confrontation eventually ended with DMK legislators staging a walkout from the Assembly. Here is the video:
