He got the best timing it seems! Tamil Cinema is the breeding ground of Politicians/ chief ministers for more than a few decades. Anna ( Actor, Play writer) started this wave and Kalaingar Karunanithi, MGR & Jayalalitha are holding that momentum intact. Even people of Kerala used to joke ," You people are choosing your Chiefministers not in the election but in the theatre itself". Sivaji failed... and T Rajendar failed... and now Vijayakanth is testing the waters.

I am watching him from the days of Sivappu Malli ( Erimalai Eppadi Porukkum Song!! ) when he portrayed a revolutionary angry young man. He has grown upto become a Captain ( after his role in Captain Prabhakaran ). He is called as Puratchik Kalaingar ! I really dont know why people are calling usual actors as Puratchithamilan, kalaingar etc. Mr Sathyaraj openly told that, " What Puratchi/revolution we have done? I dont know ! We acted in films and we are payed for that!". So let us see whether there is any real stuff coming out of his effort... in the coming days. India is ruled by a scientific President and a financial Prime minister... but Tamilnadu state... will never have one intelectual ruler in near future it seems !? - Chella
