Director Venkat Prabhu paid a formal courtesy visit to the newly sworn-in Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, C. Joseph Vijay, at the Chennai Secretariat, presenting him with a deeply sentimental and creative token of congratulations.
The filmmaker gifted the Chief Minister the original, iconic “TN07 CM 2026” custom vehicle number plate that was prominently featured in their massive 2024 blockbuster collaboration, ‘The Greatest of All Time’ (GOAT).
In the sci-fi action film, the fictional number plate served as a clever, highly celebrated Easter egg that drove fans into a frenzy by foreshadowing Vijay’s real-world political timeline and ultimate ascension to leadership.
Realizing the exact vision predicted by the prop two years prior, Venkat Prabhu shared a heartwarming picture of the presentation, wishing the new Chief Minister an incredible tenure in public service.
The meeting has quickly gone viral across political and cinema circles, celebrating a unique moment where cinematic fiction perfectly aligned with political reality.
