At least 29 individuals have died following a stampede-like situation at a political rally led by Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) chief and actor Vijay. The incident occurred on Saturday, September 27, 2025, in Karur, Tamil Nadu, as the crowd reportedly became uncontrollable during Vijay’s address.
During the event, Vijay paused his speech to provide water to attendees experiencing suffocation and arranged for ambulances. In response to the fatalities, Chief Minister M.K. Stalin is anticipated to visit the site in Karur on Sunday, while Prime Minister Narendra Modi has conveyed his condolences.
