Vijay’s London Event Cancelled Over Crowd Concerns As Fans Gather Outside The Shard

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and actor Vijay’s London visit saw a planned public appearance near The Shard cancelled after police raised crowd-safety concerns, with hundreds of supporters gathered to see him. His party, TVK, appealed to supporters not to assemble outside his hotel. The incident has renewed attention on the massive crowds that often gather around Vijay, including a previous surge at Chennai airport. At the same time, Vijay’s UK visit has focused on investment outreach, with Tamil Nadu signing MoUs involving proposed investments of around ₹12,300 crore, expected to create more than 9,400 jobs, according to officials.
