The Kochadaiiyaan star met his die-hard fans in in front of the press on May 15.

“The invitation has been sent to his fan clubs. It will be a photo opportunity with Thalaivar, and contrary to reports he won’t be addressing his fans. Since he has met them in a long time, he has finally decided to spend a few hours with them. He will meet his fans in small groups over a period of four days,” a source close to the actor had previously said.
