Chennai, April 23

Veteran actor and filmmaker T. Rajendar joined the list of notable personalities exercising their democratic rights by casting his vote in the Tamil Nadu assembly elections on Thursday.

Happy to see celebrities encouraging youth to vote. Vijay Sethupathi's message is spot on - voting is our most important responsibility. But honestly, I wish more young people would follow these examples without needing celebrity motivation. In the 2019 elections, voter turnout in Tamil Nadu was around 72% which is good but could be better. Every vote counts in shaping our state's future!

Gotta appreciate T Rajendar for standing in queue like a normal person. Many politicians these days think they're above such things. But let's be real - celebrities voting is just a photo op most times. The real change happens when ordinary people like us vote based on issues, not just because a star told us to. Still, better than them sitting at home.

As someone from the US, it's refreshing to see celebrities in India participating in democracy this way. In America, many famous people also vote but often get VIP treatment. T Rajendar queuing up with everyone else shows a humility that's admirable. Trisha in that green outfit looked classy too! Good example for all citizens regardless of where you're from.

I appreciate T Rajendar for waiting in queue but I have to say - why do we make such a big deal when celebrities do normal things? We should normalize voting, not make it a special ceremony. Every citizen should vote without expecting praise. Still, kudos to him and all stars who participated. Hope actual voters look at candidates' work, not just their star power. 😊
