“MGR gave it, Vijayakanth taught it to us,” once Sathyaraj praised Vijayakanth on a public platform. It is not just words of flattery. There is truth behind those words.

Black MGR

Vijayakanth is fondly called Captain. Similarly, there are many who fondly call him the black MGR. Vijayakanth used to be a philanthropist in the ranks of NS Krishnan and MGR.

Vijayakanth

Whenever I go to his office, food is always being prepared. He makes those who come hungry eat a lot and sends them back hungry. Similarly, he does not send back empty-handed those who come for help.

A single meal

And on the sets of his films, whatever kind of food Vijayakanth eats, that food is served even to the shop floor staff. Vijayakanth is the one who treats everyone equally with love.

A sad story behind the gift scam

Vijayakanth made his debut in 1979 in the movie “Inikkum Ihla”. Sudhakar played the lead role in this. Radhika acted opposite him. In this, Vijayakanth played the role of Arun.

This film was followed by the film “Akal Lanmu”. Vijayakanth was eating one day during the shooting of his next film after ‘Akal Lampu’. When Hero entered the shooting site, someone there stopped Vijayakanth from eating and said, “Hero has arrived”.

Vijayakanth

Vijayakanth has shared about this in an interview a few years ago.

“When I offered to eat during the shooting of a film, the hero came and took me away. It was better to get stuck than to eat.

After starting my Rauther production company, I decided to feed the crew well. Earlier, they used to have food in pots. I was the first to come up with the method of adding rice to leaves. It doesn’t matter if you think I’m arrogant for saying this.

Vijayakanth

I decided that everyone on the set should eat what I eat. If I eat cool drinks everyone should eat cool drinks, if I eat mutton everyone should eat mutton. After taking this decision, I implemented it. Thus Vijayakanth, there has been such a sad story behind Kodai Vallall.
