Actor-politician Khushbu Sundar visited her ‘thambi’ (younger brother), Tamil Nadu chief minister and actor Vijay’s house to invite him to her daughter’s wedding. Remarking on how he took the time out to greet them with the same warmth as always, despite his busy schedule, Khushbu stated that her daughters Avantika, Anandita, and future son-in-law Shravan Sreenivasan couldn’t keep their eyes off Vijay.
Khushbu Sundar invites Vijay to Avantika’s wedding
Khusbu posted pictures of her, her husband, filmmaker-actor Sundar C, Anandita, Avantika and Shravan all smiles as they invited Vijay to the wedding, “A truly special and memorable day for our family as we met my dearest brother, our Hon’ble Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, Shri @actorvijay avl, at his residence and extended the invitation for our daughter’s wedding with Shri Shravan Sreenivasan,” she wrote.
Khushbu also posted pictures of Vijay posing with just her and Sundar, writing, “Seeing him always fills our hearts with pride and happiness. The children were absolutely thrilled and couldn’t take their eyes off him. Despite his demanding schedule, he welcomed us with the same warmth, affection, and beautiful smile that we have always cherished.” Thanking Vijay and expressing her love for him, she wrote, “Thank you, my brother, for your precious time, love, and blessings. It means more than words can express. Love you always. (hearts and folded hands emojis).”
When Sundar C refused to criticise Vijay
Ahead of the Tamil Nadu elections, when Sundar was contesting as a Pudiya Neethi Katchi (PNK) candidate in the Madurai Central constituency, he refused to criticise Vijay or his Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) party. “Vijay sir has a lot of love and respect for me, and so do I for him,” he had said, adding, “My wife (Khushbu) considers him her thambi (younger brother), and he calls her his akka (elder sister). So, I am not ready to criticise Vijay, his party or his candidate.”
Khushbu, who is a senior BJP leader, was also thrilled to meet Vijay after he took charge as the CM. She went to meet him as the President of STEPS (small screen producers council), and added, “On a personal note, it was a very emotional moment for me to see my younger brother behind the table as the CM. Mutual love and respect is forever.” She was also supportive when the governor asked TVK to prove a majority after the election before being allowed to form a government.
The actor-politician recently also invited PM Narendra Modi to Avantika and Shravan’s wedding. Khushbu last starred in Subedaar, while Vijay’s Jana Nayagan is still awaiting CBFC clearance. Sundar has Mookuthi Amman 2 as a director and One 2 One as an actor lined up.
