His last projects
In 2024, Vijay starred in three films. He began the year with Sriram Raghavan’s Merry Christmas, which was also shot in Hindi and starred Katrina Kaif. The film revolves around an uneventful Christmas Eve, which turns the world of two people upside down. When two strangers meet, romance blossoms, and the plot takes an unexpected turn.
His 50th film, Maharaja, directed by Nithilan Saminathan and co-starring Anurag Kashyap, was also released last year and became a massive success at the box office. The film was released in Chinese cinemas in November last year and went on to become a huge success there as well.
He ended the year with Vetrimaaran’s Viduthalai Part 2 with Manju Warrier as his co-star. In the sequel, following his capture, Perumal begins to recount his life story to the officers transporting him, shedding light on his transformation from a righteous school teacher to a revolutionary leader.
