It's widely known that Kollywood star Vijay has officially announced his entry into politics, revealing his intention to participate in the Tamil Nadu elections in 2026. This decision surprised many, as Vijay had previously been vague about his political aspirations.
Nonetheless, his entry into politics is expected to make a significant impact in Tamil Nadu's political landscape. There were earlier speculations that Vijay might retire from acting after entering politics. However, he is currently focused on completing his existing film commitments as quickly as possible.
Vijay is currently working on a film titled "GOAT" directed by Venkat Prabhu. More than half of the film's shooting has already been completed, and Vijay's remaining portions are expected to be wrapped up in a few days. The team aims to finish shooting by the first week of April or May. The film is slated for release in August, coinciding with the release of "Pushpa 2" on August 15. There are rumors in the Tamil industry that "GOAT" may also be released during the same week, taking advantage of the holiday season.
This swift progress in completing "GOAT" has surprised many, and there is a possibility of a clash between "GOAT" and "Pushpa 2" at the box office. Vijay's strong presence in the Tamil Nadu market could potentially impact the box office performance of "Pushpa 2" in the region. The outcome of this clash remains uncertain, and fans will have to wait for further developments.
