Open Letter to Mr. Vijay

Vijay, You Said You’re One of Us — But Where Were You When We Needed You?

Vijay… we trusted you.

You told us you were part of every Tamil family. You said our joys are your joys, and our pain is your pain. You stood on stages and spoke about love, unity, and responsibility. You said “I am not above anyone — I am one among you.”

But when tragedy struck — when your own people were dying right in front of you — you were not there.

Thousands waited for you in the scorching sun. They stood for hours just to see you smile for a moment. They brought their children, their elders — some travelled from faraway towns because they trusted you. But what did they get in return?

No water. No shade. No safety. Just chaos.

People fainted before you even arrived. Ambulances came and went. And yet, you came late — six hours late — and still continued your speech while people were collapsing in the crowd.

And when the unthinkable happened… when innocent lives were lost… when families cried on the streets… you left. You left without visiting them, without even saying a word to those who had lost everything in a single evening.

Vijay, how could you?

You once said you are a brother to every Tamil, that you would always stand with the people. But when your “family” was in pain, you didn’t stand by them. You didn’t visit the hospitals. You didn’t meet the grieving mothers or the fathers who carried their children’s bodies.

How can a man who calls himself a leader turn away from his people’s suffering?

True leadership is not about being cheered by thousands; it’s about comforting one person in tears. It’s about showing up when it hurts.

You had a chance that night to show the world what kind of leader you really are — but your silence spoke louder than any words.

Vijay, popularity fades, movies end, and applause dies down. What remains is how you treat people when they’re broken.

You said you were one of us. But when we needed you the most… you walked away.

Some World Leaders — Like You, Vijay — Who Left Their People While They Were Suffering

Vijay, history remembers not only the heroes who stood with their people, but also the leaders who walked away when their people were crying for help.
You are not the first leader to face this kind of disappointment — the world has seen others who were loved deeply, trusted completely, and then lost that trust when they turned their backs in a moment of pain.

Here are some world leaders who, like you on that tragic day, were accused by the people of leaving them when they needed compassion and courage the most.

Marie Antoinette – France (French Revolution, 1789–1793)

Incident: During severe famine, she was (falsely) quoted as saying “Let them eat cake.”
Public Reaction: She became a symbol of elite disconnect — a queen enjoying luxury while her people starved.

Boris Johnson – United Kingdom (COVID-19 Lockdowns, 2020–2022)

Incident: During strict lockdowns, he and his staff held private parties at Downing Street while the public was told to stay home.
Public Reaction: People accused him of double standards and betrayal of national trust.

Benito Mussolini – Italy (World War II Defeats, 1943)

Incident: As Italy suffered military losses, Mussolini hid from the public and failed to address the nation.
Public Reaction: Italians revolted, arrested him — seeing him as a coward who abandoned his people.

Nicolas II – Russia (World War I and Revolution, 1917)

As famine spread and soldiers died in war, the Tsar lived in luxury and refused to hear the people’s pleas.
His silence and distance made him a symbol of royal blindness — and his empire fell soon after.

Suharto – Indonesia (Economic Collapse, 1998)

When the country fell into economic chaos, Suharto was seen as hiding behind walls of wealth.
Riots broke out, people died, and his own citizens forced him out of power.

Park Geun-hye – South Korea (Sewol Ferry Disaster, 2014)

Over 300 school students drowned when the Sewol Ferry sank.
The president was missing for seven hours during the crisis — no one knew where she was.
Her silence led to nationwide protests. She was later impeached for her failure to act and feel.
