London: Videos of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and actor Joseph Vijay and actor Trisha Krishnan attending Ajith Kumar’s Michelin Le Mans Cup race at Silverstone have gone viral on social media, drawing considerable attention from fans of Tamil cinema.
Vijay was present at the Silverstone Motor Racing Circuit along with Trisha as actor-racer Ajith Kumar took part in the race. The appearance has sparked excitement among fans, particularly because of the reunion of the popular Vijay-Trisha pairing and the much-discussed interaction between Vijay and Ajith.

One of the videos widely circulating on social media shows Vijay and Trisha watching the car race from a balcony at the Silverstone venue.
Trisha’s presence at the event had been the subject of speculation in the days leading up to the race, with fans wondering whether she would attend or skip the event.
Another video shows Trisha arriving at the Silverstone Motor Racing Circuit. Dressed in a maroon jacket, white T-shirt and blue jeans, she was seen entering the venue ahead of the race.
Her appearance at Silverstone has added to the excitement surrounding the event, with photographs and videos of the actor quickly making their way across social media platforms.
Vijay hugs Ajith before race
The biggest fan moment of the event, however, came when Vijay met Ajith Kumar before the race.
In a video from the venue, Ajith is seen welcoming Vijay and his delegation to Silverstone. Vijay then ran towards Ajith and hugged him, creating what fans have described as a special “Thala-Thalapathy” crossover.
The affectionate exchange between the two leading stars of Tamil cinema has gone viral, with fans celebrating their camaraderie.
Ajith, who has pursued professional motorsport alongside his acting career, welcomed Vijay and his delegation before the race. Vijay subsequently flagged off what was described as a landmark race at the iconic British circuit.
The meeting between the two stars has attracted particular attention because both have enormous fan followings in Tamil Nadu. Their friendly interaction has been widely shared online, with fans praising the stars for putting their bond ahead of the intense fan rivalry that often surrounds them.
Trisha bonds with Radikaa Sarathkumar
Before her appearance at the race venue, Trisha was also seen spending time with veteran actor Radikaa Sarathkumar in London.
