Vijay (Tamil: விஜய்), (born as Joseph Vijay Chandrasekhar on June 22, 1974) is an Indian film actor. His mother tongue is Tamil. He began his career in acting in films directed by his father Chandrasekhar. Although it took more than 10 movies to stabilize himself in the Tamil movie industry, he has grown into one of the leading stars in Kollywood after Rajinikanth and Kamal Hassan.He is the man of the masses. He has nearly perfected the art of entertaining people with dialogues, songs & dances, and an equal number of fights. Playing Vijaykanth’s younger brother in Senthoora Pandi put him in favor with Captain’s fans. The openings that his movies take are truly astonishing. His movies sell like hot cakes as soon as they are announced. His movies are almost sure of collecting a minimum amount from theatres (Minimum Guarantee).After Rajinikanth he is the king of Kollywood.
According to a recently held survey by Loyola College Students across TAMIL NADU, we will able to decipher public opinion on who they think is that "prince" who is next in line for the Superstar post. Since this survey was conducted to see who their favorite hero was, Rajini Sir still occupies the hearts of the people and is the Number one in this survey held across Tamil Nadu. But for this article, the rankings of the current generation of actors is what is going to be important for us
Here are the percentages accorded to each actor (starting from ascending and goes down to descending)
Rajinikanth - 15.6%
Vijay - 14.2%
Vijaykanth - 12.6%
Ajith - 11.1%
Kamalhaasan - 8.3%
So according to the survey held across Tamil Nadu, it becomes quite clear that Ilayathalapathy Vijay is expected to be the "Next Superstar" after Superstar Rajinikanth. The release of Pokkiri is expected to further confirm this fact among the movie goers that Vijay indeed is going to rule the hearts of our fans all over Tamil Nadu!
