Ilayathalapathy
Vijay
has
completed
22
glorious
years
in
Tamil
film
industry.
So
what
has
made
him
achieve
this
incredible
feat
with
ease?
The
answer
is
simple,
it's
his
undeniable
passion
for
cinema.
Now,
the
next
obvious
question
is,
can
he
become
the
next
Superstar?
Before
we
dig
in
for
an
answer,
let
us
recall
a
life
changing
incident
in
Vijay's
life
that
was
disclosed
by
the
Kaththi
star
himself.
When
he
dropped
out
of
his
college,
all
he
wanted
to
do
was
to
get
into
the
film
industry.
When
his
father,
a
veteran
director,
asked
him
to
focus
on
his
studies,
Ilayathalapathy
had
to
prove
to
him
that
he
could
one
day
become
a
successful
star
actor.
So
what
did
he
do?
Well,
he
brought
out
the
actor
in
him
in
front
of
his
father.
Rajinikanth
starrer
Annamalai
was
the
most
happening
movie
at
that
time
and
as
we
all
know,
Vijay
is
a
huge
fan
of
Superstar.
In
Annamalai,
Rajinikanth
would
have
stylishly
displayed
his
acting
skills
in
a
scene
in
which
he
would
challenge
his
close
friend
after
learning
that
his
friendship
had
been
misused.
Our
Ilayathalapathy
Vijay
had
brought
out
the
exact
emotion
along
with
the
dialogues
in
front
of
his
father
to
convince
him
that
he
could
act.
That
level
of
passion
has
what
made
him
a
successful
actor
and
that's
why
Ilayathalapathy
is
what
he
is
today.
Vijay
has
considered
Rajinikanth
as
his
role
model
for
many
years
now
and
also
shares
some
of
his
brilliant
qualities
like
humility,
simplicity
and
his
interest
in
social
welfare.
Whether
or
not
Vijay
could
become
the
next
Superstar
is
left
to
the
fans
to
decide
but
he
is
certainly
the
first
Ilayathalapathy
to
conquer
millions
of
fans.
