Vijay, who did not meet the waiting media at Tiruchirappalli and Chennai airports following the stampede, took to 'X' to respond to the fatal incident.

"My heart has broken, I am in unbearable, inexplicable pain and grief, " he said.

The actor added he prayed for speedy recovery of those being treated in hospitals.

He extended his sympathies to the families of "my dear brothers and sisters killed in Karur."
