Forty-one innocent lives have been lost because of the reckless behavior of some of your cadres.

Mr. Vijay, if you had arrived on time, this tragic loss of 41 lives might have been prevented.

This video needs some punch dialogues, fight scenes and at least one item song.

I genuinely want to understand the superstar culture of the South.

Public transport is late…people dont care, waiting at hospitals and other places…its ok, it is norm…People should question him for being late.
