Vijay, is he losing so many crores because he is leaving the cinema?
Actor Vijay announced his political journey on february 2. Accordingly, he had named his party as 'Tamilaka Vetri Kazhagam' and announced that he would act as the leader of the party. In addition to that, he had clearly mentioned in the statement that his party will not contest in the upcoming parliamentary elections and that his goal is to win the assembly elections to be held in 2026 and take power.
Although Vijay's political entry has created a storm in the political arena, it has caused a stir in the film circles. This is because Vijay has announced that he will no longer act in films. Vijay is the actor who has the biggest market in the tamil film industry. Vijay's Leo is the highest opening day tamil film in the history of tamil cinema. The film collected Rs.148 crores.
Vijay used to be such a collection star that many actors' films could not reach this collection in a single day even in lifetime. His films are not only popular in tamil Nadu but also in states like Andhra Pradesh, kerala and Karnataka. Vijay, who was the box office king of kollywood, has suddenly announced that he is leaving the cinema, which is seen as a huge loss for tamil cinema. As of now, Vijay is acting in two films a year. It also collects nearly Rs.1000 crores. For example, Warisu and Leo were released last year starring Vijay. Out of this, Warii had collected Rs.310 crores and Leo had collected Rs.620 crores. Together, these two films have grossed nearly Rs.930 crore.As Vijay's market continues to soar, while kollywood was eagerly waiting for his subsequent films to reach Rs.1000 crore collection, he announced his retirement from cinema, and it is seen as a huge loss for Kollywood. Only time will tell whether Vijay's decision to leave Thalapathy to Ambon will be reconsidered.
