🔥 “Vijay or Ajith?” — The Viral interview That Exposed More Propaganda Than Personality
The internet caught fire when a journalist’s simple question — “Vijay or Ajith?” — turned into a bizarre morality play featuring Chhatrapati shivaji Maharaj and Swami Vivekananda. What should’ve been a routine fan-culture interview suddenly felt eerily rehearsed, politically scented, and algorithm-ready. tamil netizens didn’t buy a single second of it — and their collective roast session turned this clip into a full-blown meme autopsy.
Because let’s be honest: no average tamil cinephile responds to a star rivalry question with a BJP-boilerplate monologue about historical icons who have zero cultural link to the debate at hand. And the internet smelled staged from a mile away.
💣 Why This interview Feels Scripted, Staged & Strategically Packaged
1. The Answer Wasn’t Just Off-Topic — It Was Suspiciously “IT Cell On Cue.”
A casual pop-culture question somehow boomeranged into a political sermon.
Using Vivekananda + shivaji as the two-name combo? That’s the bjp IT Cell’s trademark starter pack.
Netizens instantly recognised the template.
2. “A True Tamilian Would Never Glorify a maratha king Who Invaded tamil Nadu.”
tamil history is loaded with pride, power, and giants of its own.
Celebrating Shivaji — a king who invaded tamil territories — over legendary tamil rulers feels wildly disconnected from tamil identity.
The reaction online wasn’t anger.
It was disbelief.
3. tamil Nadu Has Icons… And He Ignored ALL of Them
If someone genuinely answered philosophically, the expected names would be:
Rajaraja Cholan
Rajendra Cholan
Nedunchezhian
Vallalar
Ayya Vaikundar
Thiruvalluvar
Instead, he picked the two personalities routinely circulated in right-wing social media reels.
Is the probability of this being organic?The
Internet says: near zero.
4. The Dialogue Flow Felt Too Clean, Too Constructed
The journalist’s questions were generic.
The guy’s answers?
Structured. Thematic. Message-driven.
It felt less like an interview and more like a soft-launch propaganda skit.
5. The “Milk Pouring on Actors” Line Was a Perfectly Timed Trapdoor
That line is the classic bait used to package “rational thinking” into a political nudge.
It’s a line engineered to go viral among neutral audiences.
And guess what?
It worked — but not in the way they expected.
6. netizens Didn’t Just Reject It — They Tore It Apart
The comments section turned into a battlefield of memes:
“AI-generated Tamilian”
“BJP IT Cell Internship Task 101”
“Guy answered like a CBSE syllabus robot in a TN state board interview.”
The roasting was brutal — because the framing felt inauthentic from start to finish.
7. tamil Nadu Has Seen Too Many Staged Clips — The people Are Immune Now
They’ve seen propaganda in:
staged interviews
street vox pops
“random citizen” videos
selective edits
So when a video smells like scripting, they catch it instantly — and call it out with surgical precision.
A harmless cine interview became a masterclass in how manufactured narratives collapse the moment they collide with tamil Nadu’s political literacy.
The state doesn’t fall for staged patriotism.
It doesn’t outsource cultural pride.
And it definitely doesn’t answer “Vijay or Ajith?” with a WhatsApp University syllabus.
In short?
The script was tight — but tamil Nadu’s bullshit detector was tighter.
