Congress leader Rahul Gandhi backs Tamil film star-turned-politician Vijay in movie row with Centre

Rahul Gandhi has criticized the Centre for delaying the release of Tamil star Vijay's film 'Jana Nayagan', calling it an attack on Tamil culture. This support for Vijay's film comes amid discussions of a potential electoral alliance with his party, TVK, while the Congress is already allied with the DMK. Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin also previously condemned the delay.
