Cinesouth - 22.06.2006
Today is Ilaya Dalapathi's birthday and his fans are swarming his house to convey their good wishes to him. Since the `Pokkiri' shooting is to start on July 6, Vijay is extra happy.
As usual, Vijay is doing some charity work personally and through his fan clubs. He has already started to issue 5 lakhs of note books to students from yesterday onwards. Today, Vijay will visit Little flower, Spastic Society, Mercy Home, Jerome Illam and Anbu Karangal to gift mid day meals to the inmates.
Uniforms to 500 school students will be given at Nagapattinam and Marungoor.
In his birthday message, Vijay asked his fans to give importance to education. "Every year, I help support the education of about 100 students. You also choose intelligent students who are poor and help support their education. Each one is talented in his/her own way. The important thing is to identify it and develop it."
Even though Vijay has specifically asked that no cut-outs or banners be used, his fans are still using banners and celebrating with loud speakers. According to them, the announcement of `Pokkiri' is Vijay's birthday gift to them.
Cinesouth wishes Ilaya Dalapathy a wonderful birthday!
Vijay is very happy that his film `Pokkiri' is finally set to start on July 6th. This morning, after blessings from his parents, Vijay gave food and other help to orphanages and other charity institutions.
When a disabled girl gave him a chocolate, Vijay had it and tapped her cheek in appreciation. Vijay gave laddus to his employees and taking out a pack of 100 rupee notes, distributed them, much to their joy. He gifted coat/suit to his assistants and posed with them for a photograph.

Did your father give you a birthday gift?
"Yes, he gave me a new car."
You always do some charity work for your birthday. Any plans now?
"I will continue to do what I am doing. I am very interesting in educating poor but talented students. And hope to do more of it in future to give them a good future."
Do you have any changes in mind for your fan clubs?
"My fan clubs should be used only for good things. For me family comes first, only then my fan clubs. I have already said that before. Other than that, I do not plan any changes."
You seem to be slimmer now. Are you on a diet?
"I don't see any difference. I always eat well and I'm continuing to eat as usual."
