Thalapathy’s “Nanban” Gesture: CM Vijay Approves Special 9 AM Shows for Suriya and Trisha Karuppu:
As we both Tamil/Telugu audience know Thalapathy Vijay Sir and Suriya shares an excellent offscreen friendship. Suriya Sir and Thalapathy Vijay sir has shared their screen space together in two Tamil films: Nerrukku Ner (1997) and the Blockbuster comedy drama Friends (2001).
These two movies have emerged their friendship and combined stardom in the Tamil Film Industry.
It’s a proud moment for us fans to see CM Vijay supporting the Suriya and Trisha starrer by granting those special 9 AM shows. Fans are celebrating this gesture for the Suriya and Trisha movie, as the Karuppu release is a major event.
Coming to the film, as our beloved Chief Minister of Tamil Nādu Shri. Joseph Vijay sir has officially signed a government order (GO) granting special 9 AM shows for Karuppu on May 14 and May 15, 2026.
As the fans are celebrating this heartwarming gesture towards his longtime friend suriya. The image of Vijay signing the notice in the CM’s office has already gone viral, with the makers of Karuppu expressing their deep gratitude.
My Personal Take as Thalapathy Telugu Fan:
As a Thalapathy fan, seeing him support his fellow actors while leading the state is a proud moment. It reminds me of their mutual respect during the ‘Ghilli’ and ‘Aaru’ days. As a Thalapathy fan, I’m glad CM Vijay gave a big boost to the Suriya and Trisha film
Whether as Jana Nayagan in the CM’s chair or as Jana Nanban to the industry, he is proving that he is a leader for the people and his peers. This balance of power and friendship is exactly why the “Thalapathy” brand is so strong.
Jana Nayagan and Jana Nanban: A Mass Gesture:
“While we address him as Jana Nayagan now, this decision to grant special shows proves he is still our Jana Nanban. By supporting Suriya Sir’s Karuppu, CM Vijay has shown that he values friendship and the welfare of the cinema industry above all else. Eppudaina mana Thalapathy thopu anthe! (Our Thalapathy is always the best!) This GO isn’t just a signature; it’s a sign of a new, friendly era in Tamil Nadu cinema.”
