CM Vijay's outfit has sparked a conversation because ever since he was sworn in as Chief Minister, he has not opted for the traditional white shirt and veshti commonly worn by Tamil Nadu leaders.

Rather, the actor-turned-politician chose a black-and-white suit for the ceremony and has continued wearing similar outfits at official functions.

Responding to the buzz, he said, "Many people have been talking about the new suit that I have been wearing recently. Are we not allowed to wear a coat and suit? Is it meant only for people in positions of authority? There is nothing like that."

He further explained the meaning of his attire by adding, "I am not wearing many colours. It is just black and white, like all our hearts. The choice of these colours is to show that I will remain transparent and simple in everything, just like black and white."

He also shared about the significance of the colour black for him. "As for what the black colour signifies and whom it represents, I do not think I need to explain it, as everyone already knows, he said. "I am not someone who gives lengthy explanations or speaks unnecessarily. As people know, I usually speak for less than 20 minutes at most meetings."
