The meeting brought the two leaders together ahead of discussions on water disputes, infrastructure and southern development at the Southern Zonal Council meeting.
Photos from the encounter showed Shah and Vijay chatting comfortably, marking a contrast with the previous DMK government's cooler stance toward the Centre.
The interaction has been viewed by analysts as a fresh signal of cooperation on practical issues, even as disagreements between the Centre and Tamil Nadu remain.
With Shah set to chair the 31st Southern Zonal Council meeting and Vijay serving as vice-chairman, the Chennai encounter comes ahead of deliberations on key issues concerning the southern region, including water disputes, infrastructure and development.
The meeting and the leaders' public interaction have drawn attention for the warmer tone displayed ahead of the council's deliberations.
