Who’s That Telugu Guy With Vijay: Why People Reacting?
This Telugu businessman is Vishnu Reddy, who is a granite businessman in Andhra Pradesh and apparently a close friend of Vijay.
By: Tupaki Desk | 9 May 2026 11:18 AM ISTTamil Nadu public likes to identify themselves as an extremely indigenous population, and they never have any political affiliations with other states. This is one of the primary reasons why Tamil population always vote for only the regional parties and not national parties.
However, after the remarkable victory of Thalapathy Vijay’s TVK, in the recent Tamil Nadu election, something interesting has started to unfold.
In this context, there is this one particular development where Vijay was seen with a Telugu businessman while meeting the Tamil Nadu governor, which has become a topic of discussion
This Telugu businessman is Vishnu Reddy, who is a granite businessman in Andhra Pradesh and apparently a close friend of Vijay. Film producer, KVN is also seen with Vijay when he met the governor and also immediately created public backlash.
A social media user posted” According to sources, Vishnu Reddy is a businessman and close friend of TVK chief Vijay. He is said to have played a major role in the strategy and execution, especially social media, for TVK. Vishnu Reddy was also present with TVK leaders when they met the Governor.”
However, there was a series of negative reactions to this matter as another social media user, who appears to be a Tamil guy posted “Is KVN (Karnataka) going to become the new version of Red Giant Movies?
Is Vishnu Reddy (Andhra) going to play the same role Sabareesan played earlier? Because this is exactly what people said they wanted to move away from. This is not the change people voted for.”
It appears that the presence of the Telugu guy and Kannada film producer with Vijay did not go well with the Tamil population. They are clearly expressing their dissociation with the same.
