Vijay's Puducherry Pongal
- IndiaGlitz, [Friday,January 15 2010]
Vijay played a perfect host at a fishing hamlet in Puducherry a couple of days ago, as the actor treated to a feast close to 2,500 people as part of Pongal celebrations.
The 'Ilaya Thalapathy', who was busy shooting for his 50th film 'Sura' near Hanumanthaiah Kuppam in the Union Territory, wanted to reciprocate to the love and affection showered on him by the locals.
And Pongal turned out to be an apt reason for it, circles close to him say and add: Many wanted Vijay to visit their homes and dine once. As it is impossible to individually visit all the houses, he organised a feast and invited them all with their families to it. What's more, he served them food and ate with them.
Interacting with the Fisherfolk, Vijay said he is happy to play a fisherman in the film. Fishing community is always close to my heart. Your fight for survival is a lesson to everyone, the actor told them.
