Thalapathy Vijay has once again been summoned for questioning in connection with the Karur Stampede case. The investigation is currently being handled by the Central Bureau of Investigation.The probe agency had asked Vijay to appear before the investigation team on March 10, 2026 and this would have been his third round of questioning in the case. The stampede tragedy occurred in September 2025 and has since remained under detailed investigatigation and recent reports from Deccan Herald now indicate that the actor-politician has made two requests to the investigating team regarding the questioning process.
Request for 15-day extension
Reportedly Vijay has requested 15 additional days before appearing for questioning and this request was made because of his ongoing political commitments.The actor has been actively participating in campaign activities ahead of the upcoming Tamil Nadu legislative assembly elections. Due to these commitments Vijay reportedly asked the investigation team to grant him more time before he appears for the next round of questioning. The request is said to be part of a formal communication sent to the agency.
Request to change questioning location
Apart from the extension request Vijay has also sought a change in the location of questioning. The ‘Jana Nayagan’ actor was earlier asked to appear at the CBI headquarters in New Delhi. However, considering his busy schedule, he has requested the agency to conduct the questioning in Chennai or any nearby location instead. Reports suggest that this request was made to avoid travel complications while he continues his political campaign.As of now, the investigation team has not taken a final decision regarding the change of location or the extension of time. However there are indications that the agency might consider rescheduling the questioning and this possibility is being discussed due to Vijay’s current political engagements.

Vijay addresses rumours
The viral appearance also sparked conversations online because it came during a sensitive period in Vijay’s personal life.
