Vijay to enter politics at 40: SAC

Putting rest to speculations that Vijay is getting ready to test political waters in the forthcoming elections to Tamil Nadu Assembly, the actor’s father and filmmaker S A Chandrasekar has said his son would take the political plunge at the age of 40 (He is 36 now.)

“Vijay always wanted to serve the people. So he would sure enter politics. But not now. He would definitely come to politics at the age of forty,” the noted director has said in an interview.

Stating that the actor’s recent release ‘Kavalan’ faced unprecedented hurdles, Chandrasekar said, “Some forces which don’t like Vijay’s political plans want to ensure that he doesn’t have a successful acting career.”

“Vijay is no match to MGR,” he said and added: “But they are taking him to the heights of MGR.” On his recent meeting with AIADMK supremo J Jayalalithaa, Chandrasekar said, “It was my concern for the society that made me to meet her.”

I was shocked!

This post isn't really filmi, though it has a connection with a film. This is a politics/real news post.

This morning I woke up to find out that Maddelacheruvu Suri had been shot dead. I was truly shocked, I didn't know what to say. It was only a month ago that I saw Raktha Charitra 2 and I also read about him too. He was alive a couple of days ago like any human. It was just a couple of weeks ago he gave an interview, just a couple of days ago he announced his entry into politics. But, what happened to him was just too sudden and scary.Suri wasn't even that old, he was in his 50s. I saw it when I went on to twitter. His name: Maddelacheruvu Suri was trending and when I clicked on it, all the links said that he has been shot and is dead. 


It is said that he was shot in the head,chest,stomach and the shoulder a couple of times, there are even pictures. But I thought it was stupid that you would let the press in to take pictures when it was extremely serious of him.  In a way I think his death is kind of sad, because I have sympathy for the people who get caught in the net of factionalism. Because it never stops, they just keep on killing people. Even, when someone wants to change they can't, because they will get killed just as Suri did. Its just sad. Suri was just eaten up in vengeance and revenge.


The police say he was shot from inside the car, because there was no damage to the car from the outside. They say it was Suri's friend/right hand Bhanu Kiran. Which makes sense with all the evidence they are getting. Wait, I think its been proven, because the DC(Deccan Chronicle) article says that Bhanu used a silencer gun.  At first I thought it was the people of Paritala Ravi that killed Suri. 


For the those who don't know Maddelacheruvu Suri, he was a faction leader( or use to be?) in Andhra Pradesh. He killed Paritala Ravi a TDP MLA in 2005 to take revenge on him for killing Suri's family. You can read about it here: http://www.deccanchronicle.com/anantapur/ravi-suri-feud-dates-back-’80-194 . 


The cinema connection: So, there is news that there might be a Raktha Charitra 3. Maddelacheruvu Suri was played by Surya Sivakumar in the movie of Raktha Charitra 1-2, so if RGV makes RC3, I'm guessing its going to be on Suri and how he dies.  I really want to know what the RC team says about this news, as in about the death. 


I still am really shocked about this incident, it really freaked me out. Now, no one is alive neither Paritala or Suri.  I knew Suri was going to get killed, but didn't think this fast. I just needed to write about my feelings and thoughts, so I did. Please do tell me how you feel about this.


 A lesson we all can learn from this: A violent persons life ends in violence.

Vijay's political entry not now

Popular filmmaker and Vijay's father S A Chandrasekar, who made waves in cinema and political circles last week by meeting AIADMK general secretary J Jayalalithaa, has said that his son would not enter politics now.

"Vijay will sure not come to politics now. Because, a strong foundation should be laid before his political entry. At the same time, he will continue helping the poor and the needy by various social welfare activities," Chandrasekar said.

Stating that his meeting with the former Chief Minister was a courtesy call, Chandrasekar added: "I may step into politics and will canvass for a political party in the forthcoming Assembly elections."

He said Vijay has been doing social service through his recently floated 'Makkal Iyakkam'. "The sole purpose of the organisation is to help the people."
