Previous Indian cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin required to social networks to praise actor-politician Vijay on the latter’s success at the Tamil Nadu Assembly Elections. After dealing with some reaction online for his congratulatory post for Vijay, which criticised the cricketer’s political leanings based on his caste, Ashwin consequently resolved it on social media.
The cricketer took to his X manage and composed, “Naalaiya Theerpu to Netraiya Theerpu!! Congratulations to Thalapathy and his party for the fabulous result. Good luck & I would love to go from being your super fan to a leader I would want to follow for what lies ahead.”
Later on a social networks user composed, “A Brahmin who is afraid of Dravidian rule.” Ashwin resolved this user and composed, “Have said it once, i will say it again! Who I was born to wasn’t my choice, thankfully I was born to parents that are beyond great. Leadership is feeling empathetic towards another person’s struggles and enabling growth beyond barriers & that’s what my parents & teachers have taught me. I want to live till the day, we stop talking about lineage or caste.”
For Vijay the just recently ended election cycle is his very first time contending in an election. Under his Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) celebration, the actor-politician objected to in the Perambur and Tiruchirappalli East constituencies, and won in both.
