This is what makes Tamil cinema special - despite professional differences, they stand together in times of grief. Vijay's message about Ajith's mother being a "shield" was really heartfelt. Strong man, tough loss.
Respectful gesture from Vijay as CM and as a friend. Losing a mother at any age is devastating. Thoughts with Ajith and his family during this difficult time.
I'm glad the CM made time for this personal visit despite his busy schedule. Shows real humanity. Also nice to see Trisha being there - she's always been classy. Om Shanti 🙏
It's beautiful how the Tamil film fraternity sticks together in times like these. No PR drama, just genuine support. Hope Ajith sir finds strength - losing a parent is never easy, no matter how old you are.
While the gesture is nice, I do feel the media should give the family some privacy during this time. Death is personal. But respect to Vijay anna for showing up - that's what friends do. Rest in peace, amma. 🌹
Never easy saying goodbye to amma. Ajith sir has always been a private person, so hope he and his family get the space they
