Children add more colour to their Thalapathy's 2nd year extravaganza

The New Indian Express

|

February 27, 2025

IT was not just the usual serious, matured faces that were in attendance at the TVK's meeting in Mahabalipuram; there were many children, giggling, laughing and occasionally babbling.

Children add more colour to their Thalapathy's 2nd year extravaganza

The faces lit up when Vijay, after the conclusion of the meeting, lifted a toddler, Ilam Siddharth from Madurai, in his arms and engaged in a baby talk.

Many said they feel the presence of kids testifies the recent unconfirmed reports on the party starting a children's wing.

Waving party flags and badges, the children were running around the venue with party shawls around their neck. As only the functionaries having passes issued by the party high command attended the meeting, the crowd was largely contained inside the venue barring a few scuffles when more tried to gain entry.
