Actor Vijay surprised an ailing fan

Actor Vijay recently took time off from his busy shooting schedule for tamil fantasy drama 'Puli', to make a surprise visit to a 25-year-old ailing female fan Archana at her Chennai residence last week. 

Archana suffers from speech impediment and has been restricted to a chair for the last five years due to a rare disease. Archana is apparently a huge fan of Vijay who has been under treatment for severe illness. She expressed a wish to meet Vijay. After learning about Archana’s situation and wish, Vijay met the girl at her residence in Kodambakkam, Chennai.

"When Vijay sir came to know about Archana and her wish to meet him, he immediately made arrangements to meet her. It was on Archana's birthday last Thursday (Jan 1) that he paid her a surprise visit. She was extremely happy to meet him," a source close to Vijay told. Vijay spent a few hours with Archana, and even clicked photographs with her and her family.
