Thrissur: Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Vijay has cancelled his scheduled visit to Kerala to attend Kalyan Jewellers' Navratri celebrations due to adverse weather conditions.

The Tamil Nadu Chief Minister was scheduled to fly to Thrissur from Coimbatore. However, persistent heavy rain in the region forced the cancellation of the planned helicopter journey. Following the cancellation of his flight to Thrissur, Vijay returned to Chennai on a special aircraft. Kalyan Jewellers chairman T S Kalyanaraman stated that Vijay assured him he would visit at a later date.

Kalyan Jewellers organises Navratri celebrations annually, attracting several prominent personalities.
