The conversation reportedly started with the tragic Karur stampede, where over 40 people reportedly lost their lives during a rally, and then moved to Vijay's upcoming film Jana Nayagan.

Addressing the topic, Rajinikanth said, "Youth must be very careful. If they get hurt, the hardship is theirs alone. They must prioritise their safety."

He further added, "The youth should think seriously about their education and future. Youngsters should be careful... If they get injured, it's their loss…They should focus on their studies and stay healthy.. Please don't get addicted to drugs or alcohol. Life can turn into hell not just for you, but for your parents and loved ones. If any of your friends are using them, don't go near them."

When the reporters asked him about the postponement of Vijay’s Jana Nayagan, which was initially scheduled for a Pongal release but has been delayed, reportedly due to certification issues, he said, "I don't want to comment on that."
