Thalapathy’s Historic Political Ascent
About Vijay’s political career
In February 2024, Vijay announced that he would contest in the 2026 elections. He launched the TVK party and held his first public rally in October 2024. Since then, the actor has toured many regions of TN to hold rallies and share his manifesto directly with the people.
Vijay refused to form an alliance with any central or regional party before he contested his debut election, even as many around him did. In the 2026 Tamil Nadu Assembly elections, the party secured 108 seats and later formed the government with the support of alliance partners. During the vote counting held on May 4, Vijay-led Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam created a major political milestone by securing 108 seats and forming the government.
TVK’s Landslide Victory in 2026 Polls

In Chennai’s Perambur constituency, Vijay secured 1,19,454 votes and defeated his nearest rival by a margin of 53,532 votes. In the Tiruchirappalli East constituency, he polled 91,381 votes and won by a massive margin of around 27,416 votes.
After assuming office as the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, Vijay resigned from his seat in the Tiruchirappalli East Assembly. It was officially announced that he would continue as the MLA for Chennai Perambur constituency.
His last film, Jana Nayagan , is still unreleased. It was set to hit theatres in January but faced delays in clearance. It was postponed due to the CBFC’s delayed certification. After Vijay’s unreleased final film Jana Nayagan was leaked online on April 9, the police have made 9 arrests in the case so far.
Vijay’s journey from superstar to Chief Minister marks a pivotal moment in Tamil Nadu politics. Keerthy Suresh’s tribute underscores the public’s anticipation and support for his new role as a committed leader, celebrating his first birthday in office.
