Vijay was gifted a Virat Kohli‑signed cricket bat during a visit to the MRF plant in Chennai.
The meeting was with MRF Chairman K.M. Mammen, Vice Chairman Arun Mammen, and Managing Director Rahul Mammen. They talked about the company’s plans in Tamil Nadu, but the bat was the real headline.
In the photos, the actor stands in a black suit, white shirt, and veshti around his neck, holding the bat with a grin that made fans go wild.
Vijay’s love for cricket has always been in the headlines. He once represented Chennai Super Kings as a brand ambassador back when the IPL started.
He’s also close to former CSK captain MS Dhoni, so the gesture from Kohli felt extra special for his supporters.
Meanwhile, his upcoming film Jana Nayagan, starring Pooja Hegde, Bobby Deol and Mamitha Baiju, is still on hold after certification and leak complaints. Yet the bat keeps him in the spotlight.
No one can deny that a signed bat can spark excitement between two massive fan bases – cinema and cricket.
