Actor Vishal Krishna has openly praised Joseph Vijay for the government’s decision to shut down 717 TASMAC wine shops across Tamil Nadu, especially those located near schools and residential areas. The actor took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his heartfelt appreciation, calling the move a “historic and people-friendly decision” that would bring relief to thousands of families, women and school-going children.
In an emotional post, Vishal wrote, “Kudos to you, whistles to you, hats off to you dear CM Joseph Vijay avargal.” He thanked the Chief Minister for taking a strong stand against liquor outlets functioning close to schools, highlighting how many young girls had allegedly faced harassment and mental stress while commuting through such areas daily.
The actor specifically mentioned an incident from RK Nagar, where a girl student reportedly struggled every day to cross a TASMAC outlet on her way home. According to Vishal, the fear and discomfort experienced by such students reflected the larger concern shared by many parents and residents across the state. He stated that the closure of these shops would finally allow many families to breathe peacefully and feel safer in their own neighbourhoods.
Vishal further noted that the move would leave “a smile on so many faces,” including his own, and called it a significant step toward protecting the welfare of women and children. Ending his post with “God bless you dearest Vijay,” the actor saluted the Chief Minister and his government for acting decisively on an issue that has long been debated in Tamil Nadu.
The announcement has quickly sparked widespread reactions on social media, with supporters of Vijay and members of the public hailing the decision as a bold administrative step. Many users echoed Vishal’s sentiments, saying liquor outlets near educational institutions have been a serious concern for years and that stricter regulation was badly needed.
The development also adds another dimension to Vijay’s growing political image, with supporters portraying the move as proof of his focus on public welfare and social responsibility. As discussions continue online, Vishal’s strongly worded message has now become one of the most talked-about celebrity reactions to the government’s announcement.
