Kollywood star and political leader Thalapathy Vijay’s recently concluded public meeting in Madurai reportedly witnessed a record attendance of over 14 million people. And the records kept crumbling.
A reel shared by Vijay on his Instagram yesterday is now breaking the internet and has clocked the highest number of likes (10.3 million) for an Instagram post by any South Indian actor. The video features Vijay taking a selfie with a sea of fans during Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam’s (TVK) second state-level conference in Madurai on August 21.
The fact that Vijay’s post amassed over 10 million likes within a day, and that too with just 14 million Insta followers, speaks volumes of Vijay’s craze. Vijay is currently working on his highly anticipated last film, Jana Nayagan. The actor will bid adieu to acting and enter Tamil Nadu politics by contesting the state assembly elections in summer 2026.
