Watch: Pooja Hegde Shares Fun Video Predicting Vijay’s Election Win
Pooja Hegde’s nostalgic BTS clip with Vijay goes viral as fans link its election moment to his real-life political rise.
The internet is currently in a frenzy as actress Pooja Hegde took a trip down memory lane, sharing a delightful and surprisingly prophetic video featuring South Indian megastar Thalapathy Vijay. The clip, which appears to be a behind-the-scenes moment from the sets of their 2022 blockbuster ‘Beast’, has captured the hearts of fans, garnering over 743,000 likes within just an hour of being posted. The video begins with a close-up of a whiteboard inside what looks like a high-tech news control room, complete with monitors and technical equipment in the background.
The board features a handwritten "Breaking News" checklist that feels incredibly relevant today. The points listed are:
Who wins the ELECTIONS?
Justice for the victim!!
Cyclone hits the coast
Pooja Hegde was seen standing in front of the board, playfully using her hands to shield the text from the camera before stepping aside to reveal the news breaks. Dressed in a dark green and blue outfit with a "VISION TV" ID lanyard around her neck – consistent with her role as a journalist in the film – she exudes a playful, triumphant energy.
As the camera pans out, the highlight of the video is revealed: Thalapathy Vijay standing right behind her. Sporting a casual brown checkered shirt and his signature salt-and-pepper look, the actor offers a glimpse of the "shy Vijay" that fans absolutely adore.
Upon being caught on camera, Vijay displays a bashful reaction, looking down and eventually covering his face with his hand while smiling broadly. Pooja, witnessing his shy demeanour, breaks into a hearty, infectious laugh that perfectly captures the camaraderie between the two co-stars. The video is set to the upbeat rhythm of their global hit song, ‘Arabic Kuthu - Halamithi Habibo’, adding an extra layer of nostalgia for the viewers.
What has piqued the interest of fans the most is Pooja’s caption: "Guess I called it before it happened? Here’s to dreams turning into reality, Vijay sir @actorvijay".
Many followers are interpreting this as a nod to Vijay’s recent official entry into politics. With the whiteboard prominently featuring a question about "Elections," Pooja’s "prediction" seems to have aged like fine wine given Vijay's current political trajectory.
The post has seen an outpouring of love from the film industry and fans alike. Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan was among the many notable names to like the post, further proving the pan-Indian appeal of the duo. Comments sections are filled with heart and fire emojis, with fans praising Vijay's evergreen charm and the duo's screen presence.
This light-hearted interaction serves as a warm reminder of the bond shared by the ‘Beast’ team, even as they move on to their respective massive projects. Whether it was a scripted moment for the film or a spontaneous BTS prank, the video has certainly succeeded in breaking the internet today.
