At a private hospital in Chennai, Vijayakanth, who was lovingly called Captain, passed away from pneumonia. One of Tamil Nadu’s most beloved politicians and actors, he was seventy-one years old. He was a powerful figure in Tamil cinema and the founder of Desiya Murpokku Dravida Kazhagam (DMDK).

Massive Crowd For Vijayakanth Funeral Procession

In Koyambedu, a sizable gathering came together to say goodbye to Captain Vijayakanth. There are major traffic detours across the city as people come from all walks of life to offer their final respects to the much-loved leader. At the DMDK headquarters, the body of Captain Vijayakanth has been deposited, drawing sizable crowds.

The funeral procession left Virugambakkam at 10:30 am and arrived at Koyambedu at 1:25 pm on its way to the DMDK headquarters. Significant traffic problems have resulted from the thousands of mourners congregating at the party office, the Koyambedu flyover, and the adjacent neighbourhoods.

Traffic diversions have been implemented at Chennai’s Koyambedu flyover due to the severe congestion. It is recommended that drivers make use of detours including the Badi overpass, Thiruveedhi Amman Service Road, and Shanthikalani to avoid the impacted regions.
