Prakash Raj criticised Vijay in speech; called him ‘chellam’ on Jana Nayagan set the next day: ‘Politics is different’

Actor Prakash Raj criticised Vijay's political campaign during the shoot of H Vinoth's film 'Jana Nayagan'.

The next day on set, Prakash Raj called Vijay 'chellam' and they greeted each other as usual, showing politics and cinema are separate.

Director H Vinoth revealed that despite differing political ideologies, Prakash Raj and Vijay maintain a professional relationship.

Prakash Raj had previously wished Vijay on his political entry and later criticised his campaign ahead of the 2026 Tamil Nadu elections.
