Actor Vijay and Politician Seeman

After noticing Vijay take part in Sri Lankan Tamils issues, Seeman knocked on Vijay’s door with Pagalavan in 2010. His ulterior motive was to exploit Vijay’s star power and impose his ideologies on people. To get Vijay’s nod, he spoke highly of him.

But that did not last long as Thalapathy Vijay turned down the offer after seeing through Seeman’s inconsistency. Seeman deliberately involved himself in controversial issues and got arrested frequently during 2010–2011 to make his newly floated party famous.

Frustrated Seeman, went on to say Vijay would regret turning down Pagalavan and started approaching other actors like Jiiva. But he could not get his nod either. He gave a break to Pagalavan and started focussing on the bigger picture of politics.

He was aware of Vijay’s interest in voicing his support for people on various social issues and how he has been troubled by the government. He also knew Vijay had more youngsters as fans. He wanted to use all these for his political mileage. Not sure how he had hoped Vijay would join his party.

Seeman ensured sure he registered his support for Vijay whenever he faced problems such as Kaththi, Mersal, etc. You could find him randomly praise Vijay in his speeches. He partly succeeded in his pursuit when he attracted several Vijay fans with this flattery.

The fans could not see through the true colors of Mr. Opportunist. They did not know how Grade A opportunists like Seeman would dump you and hail a new person when their plans don’t work. His ‘Thambis’ spread rumors during the 2016 TN Assembly Election that Vijay would be backing, albeit silently, Seeman’s Naam Tamilar Katchi party.

Seeman imitates Vijay

The fan groups I was on saw such posts ahead of the election. They deliberately did this to mislead Vijay fans. Seeman failed in earning Vijay’s support in the 2016 Assembly Election and the 2019 Indian General Election.

All these years, Seeman hoped that Vijay would either join his party or campaign for his party in the election. SAC’s political interest is not the same as Vijay’s. He miscalculated Vijay. In 2019, the snake spat venom when he imitated Vijay in the latter’s video to Jayalalitha.

In the same speech, he attributed superstar to Simbu because he wanted Simbu’s dates. Below is the excerpt of his statement.

Seeman makes contradictory statements

Seeman’s statements, of late, indicate that now he is convinced he would not get Vijay’s support for his party in the 2020 Tamil Nadu Assembly Election. He was someone who maintained he would welcome Vijay in politics. He now says he would bash Vijay in politics.

Seeman’s refers to Suriya to put Vijay down

It’s a trait of an opportunist to dump someone and appropriate a new person for your gains. No offense, but Suriya’s involvement in social issues came to the fore only in the last 1–2 years, and Vijay has been silent on social issues only during the same period.

Vijay observes fast with his fans in support of Sri Lankan Tamils

That does not dismiss several instances when Vijay was vocal on social issues. He was the first actor to observe fast in solidarity with Sri Lankan Tamils in 2008. He organized the protest in Nagapattinam to condemn the killings and torture of innocent fisherfolk by the Sri Lankan navy.

In the same protest, Vijay had exhorted his fans to shoot off telegrams to the Prime Minister and Chief Minister on this issue. When most actors remained mum, Vijay promptly voiced against Jallikattu, NEET, Demonetization, Farmers issue, Sterlite shootout, and several others.

Unlike any other politicians, Seeman uses actors in his speeches. He sees them like playing on a seesaw. When you push one end of the lever down, the other one goes up. Seeman puts one actor down to lap the other one up. He used Vijay often and sometimes Kamal to put Rajini down.

He used STR some time ago when he put Vijay down, and today he may have found a new shoulder in Suriya to ride on since Suriya is in the good books of people after he has started raising his voice for social issues lately. But it won’t be long for this opportunist to turn his back on Suriya.
