Thalapathy Vijay faces legal heat from Muslim community for Iftar event ahead of Eid 2025: ‘No connection to Islamic practices’

I was absolutely thrilled when I learned that Thalapathy Vijay had been hosting an Iftar event ahead of Eid 2025. However, it seems that things have taken a turn for the worse as this act has landed him in a major controversy. As per a report by News18, the Muslim community has expressed their offense regarding the conducted event. As a dedicated fan, I’m keeping a close eye on the developments and hoping for a resolution soon.

According to recent updates, Syed Ghous, the state treasurer of Tamil Nadu Sunnat Jamaat, has lodged a complaint stating that an actor disrespected their community and its feelings. This complaint was submitted at the Chennai Police Commissioner’s office, requesting appropriate legal action against the actor-politician.

The complainant stated that the Iftar gathering was considered disrespectful by the community due to the presence of individuals who were clearly under the influence of alcohol. In simpler terms, he mentioned that a number of people who do not adhere to fasting or Islamic traditions, such as those who were drunk and disorderly, attended the event.

The person filing the complaint believed that this action was disrespectful towards the significance of Iftar. Additionally, Syed Ghous accused Thalapathy Vijay of causing confusion among attendees due to poor planning. Furthermore, he expressed doubts about the true purpose behind organizing such events, implying they might have been driven by political motivations.

Professionally speaking, Thalapathy Vijay’s last appearance on the silver screen was in 2024 with the premiere of his film titled “The Greatest Of All Time,” also known as “The GOAT.” This movie, helmed by Venkat Prabhu, is an espionage action drama that showcases Vijay in a unique dual role.

In this movie, we follow the story of a secret agent whose child goes missing, causing him to feel distant from his family. Yet, surprisingly, his son reappears, but it’s revealed that he harbors a wicked scheme in his heart.

Additionally, it’s worth noting that Thalapathy Vijay is at present engaged in filming for Jana Nayagan under the guidance of director H Vinoth. This upcoming movie is expected to be a blend of action, drama, and political themes, with Bobby Deol and Pooja Hegde playing the principal roles.

Besides the main stars, the movie features Mamitha Baiju, Priyamani, Gautham Vasudev Menon, Narain, and others in pivotal roles. The film boasts music by Anirudh Ravichander and is said to hit theaters during Pongal 2026.
