Actor Arjun Sarja recently spoke about his conversation with Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Vijay, his co-star from the film Leo. Arjun revealed that Vijay had seen all the memes based on his 1999 hit film Mudhalvan. The actor-politician was only in his early 20s when he turned down the offer for the iconic role, which eventually went to Arjun.
When asked about it at an event, Arjun smiled and said, 'I met him recently when he became the CM. He told me he saw memes. When he first saw the CM seat, he said he remembered my Oke Okkadu/Mudhalvan movie.'
Arjun and Vijay played brothers in Lokesh Kanagaraj's 2023 hit Leo. After meeting Vijay last week, Arjun posted pictures and wrote on Instagram, 'With our dearest Mudhalvan, C. Joseph Vijay Avl. Wishing him strength, good health and guidance as he continues to shoulder great responsibility with grace.'
When asked if he had plans on entering politics, Arjun joked, 'I don’t think you want me to be happy.' However, he explained further, adding, 'To do something like that, you need to have something on the inside. I don’t have that. If you just want to do good, you can do it otherwise too.'
