As actor-turned-politician Thalapathy Vijay gears up to contest the Tamil Nadu assembly elections next year, he has turned his focus to public service.

The Tamil cinema superstar entered state politics by launching his party Tamizhaga Vetri Kalagam (TVK). Announcing his retirement from films, Vijay revealed that “Jana Nayagan" will be his last movie, marking the end of a prolific cinematic career. Ahead of polls, his consistent use of a particular number on all his vehicles and campaign bus has caught fans’ attention.

Vijay’s Fondness For Luxury Vehicles

Vijay has long been known for his fondness for high-end cars. Over the past year, he has added three new vehicles to his collection after selling his Rolls-Royce: a BMW electric car, a Lexus LM, and Toyota’s Vellfire. He also owns a bus dedicated to his political campaigns across Tamil Nadu. Interestingly, the number “0277" appears on all these vehicles.

Emotional Connection Behind Number Plate

The vehicles carry the following registrations: TN 14 AH 0277 (BMW), TN 14 AL 0277 (Lexus), TN 14 AM 0277 (Vellfire), and TN 14 AS 0277 (TVK campaign bus). His former Rolls-Royce, however, bore the number “0014." Fans have noted that the sequence 14-02-77, representing a date, appears repeatedly across his current vehicles.

Vijay’s Eternal Love For His Late Sister

The number is a tribute to Vijay’s younger sister, Vidya, who passed away at a young age. Her birthdate, 14-02-77, is immortalized in his vehicle registrations as a mark of affection and remembrance. Fans have lauded Vijay’s gesture, calling it a heartfelt and unique display of brotherly love. As he embarks on his political journey, this personal tribute offers a glimpse into the tender, private side of the actor’s life.
