The actor had announced earlier that he will be honouring many students who have earned high marks in Class 10 and Class 12 examinations from every 234 constituencies of Tamil Nadu at a grand event. The affair was held today in Chennai and his fans attended it in large numbers.

Several pictures and videos from the event are now doing the rounds on social media. In his speech, Vijay congratulated every student who earned top marks and urged them to follow their hearts and not to get discouraged by those who unnecessarily point out their mistakes.

A few students expressed excitement at attending the event and meeting the star. The actor also stressed the importance of education and character in one's lives and spoke against the practice of casting vote in elections after receiving money from corrupt political parties.

The event is considered as a prelude to Vijay's political entry which is expected to happen in the coming years. There are speculation that he might take a short break after wrapping up his next, Thalapathy 68, to be directed by Venkat Prabhu.
