Actor Thalapathy Vijay is currently juggling the shoot of his final film and his political commitments. He has joined active politics and is the leader of his political party, Tamizhaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK). The actor was returning from a film shoot in Kodaikanal and was spotted with tight security at the airport. In a dramatic moment, one of his security guards pulled out a gun and pointed it at a fan who tried to get too close.

Videos of the incident are circulating on social media. In the video, Vijay can be seen stepping out of his vehicle, surrounded by security personnel. Fans were gathered nearby, eager to catch a glimpse of their favorite star. However, one fan broke through the security cordon and rushed toward the actor with a shawl in hand. This caused a commotion, prompting the security team to hold the man back while one of the guards briefly pointed a gun at him.
Reportedly, Vijay appeared unaware of the scuffle happening behind him and walked into the airport without reacting.
The fan later told News18, “I didn’t know the gun was there; the bouncers did it for security reasons. I don't think they did anything wrong.”

About Thalapathy Vijay's last film
The actor will conclude his acting career with Thalapathy 69. Despite being at the peak of his film career, he has chosen to step away to focus on politics and lead his party, Tamizhaga Vettri Kazhagam.
During his first political speech as the head of TVK, Vijay said, “At the absolute height of my career, I am throwing it away — throwing away the salary I was drawing — and I am coming to you as your Vijay. I am placing all my trust in you.”
He also addressed the criticism he has faced in the film industry:
“They first said my face wasn’t good. Then, they said my personality wasn’t good. Then, they shamed me for my style, my hair, my walk, etc. What really kept me going during those times was your (fans’) support. It is that love and trust that has brought me into politics today.”
After years of speculation, Vijay officially launched TVK on February 2, 2024, and unveiled the party’s flag and symbol on August 22 at the party headquarters in Chennai. He assured the public that TVK is not a front for any other political party.
“I have not entered politics for personal gain but out of social commitment. I may be a newcomer in politics, but my commitment remains undaunted. Our party’s core enemies are corruption and communalism,” Vijay stated.
