After superstar Vijay, there were reports that actor Vishal is also planning to enter politics. The news was widely circulated on social media.
Vishal has now responded to this news. The star revealed the truth of the news through a note shared on social media.
The actor clarified in a press release that he is not into politics. Vishal said that he is helping the poor through his fan club and will continue to do so.
But even if not now, the actor also hints that he will enter politics in the future.
I am forever indebted to the people of Tamil Nadu who have accepted me as an actor and a social activist. I started my fan clubs with the goal of helping as many people as possible.
Our goal was to help those who were suffering as much as we could. The next step is district, constituency and branch wise work by forming the People's Welfare Movement. Every year we help many poor and underprivileged students through 'Devi Foundation' which is run in the name of my mother.
We also help the affected farmers. I did welfare work not expecting political benefits. I will not hesitate to speak for the people in the future if necessary.
I meet people in many places where I go for shooting and listen to their basic needs and grievances and fulfill their needs through my people welfare movement.
I did welfare work not expecting political benefits. I will not hesitate to speak for the people in the future if necessary. – Vishal said through a press release.
Vishal's political entry was discussed after Vijaya's political entry. Meanwhile, Vishal is an actor who has shown interest in politics since early. In 2017, he submitted nomination papers to contest in the RK Nagar by-election.
But that day he could not contest as the paper was rejected. Currently, the actor is busy shooting for the new film Ratnam.
