Vijay’s Kerala trip

Vijay posted numerous videos of himself enjoying a jog through the hills of Munnar. One video shows him jogging on a steep slope between a hill and a valley. Another shows him jogging through some tea estates, and one shows him taking in the view from the top once he’s done with the jog. One video, however, shows him obliging forest officers who recognised him for selfies.

Sharing them he wrote, “1&2 – Run with me through the tea estates of Kerala, India. 3 – Getting caught by Forest officers for picture time. 4 – Pause, Breathe, Taking in the moment. 5 – The Route. 6 – Idea was to keep heart rate in zone 2- between 140-150. But lots of uphill meant zone went mostly to 3/4&5.”

Numerous fans in the comments section recognised that Vijay was in Munnar. Others commented with heart emojis, asking him to be careful. A fan even commented in Malayalam, asking him to come to his hometown to explore.
