How Vijay Built Political Momentum for TVK in Just Two Years When actor Joseph Vijay launched Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), many initially dismissed it as another fan based political experiment. But within just two years, Vijay managed to make TVK politically unavoidable in Tamil Nadu. One major reason was digital influence. Unlike traditional parties that relied heavily on TV channels, newspapers, banners, and cadre networks, TVK’s growth happened largely online. YouTube channels, meme pages, reels, WhatsApp forwards, and Twitter/X trends continuously kept Vijay in public discussion. TVK supporters built their own online ecosystem. Every speech became viral content. Old interviews were repackaged. Movie dialogues were politically reframed. Whether positive or negative, Vijay remained part of daily political conversations. Another key factor was Vijay’s image. For years, he cultivated the reputation of being calm, disciplined, and relatively controversy free. Even issues like the Karur controversy or Sangeetha Trisha gossip discussions did not seriously affect his core support base. His fans already had emotional loyalty built through decades of cinema influence. Timing also played a major role. Tamil Nadu is currently going through a political transition after leaders like J. Jayalalithaa and M. Karunanidhi. Many young voters are searching for a new political alternative, and TVK entered at the right moment. However, digital popularity alone cannot guarantee electoral victory. Social media creates attention and momentum, but elections are still decided by booth strength, alliances, local leadership, caste equations, and ground level organization. What Vijay has achieved in two years is not complete political success yet but he has successfully made TVK impossible to ignore in Tamil Nadu politics. Obsolute Makkal Sakthi. #TVK #Vijay #ThalapathyVijay #TamilNaduPolitics #TVKPolitics #DigitalPolitics #PoliticalAnalysis #YouthPolitics #2026Elections #TamilPolitics #SocialMediaPolitics

Thank you, Lokesh Garu. I will continue to work hard and do everything I can to create opportunities for my people of Tamil Nadu, especially the youth whom I represent, with sincerity, humility, and determination.
Lokesh Nara@naralokesh

Dear Keerthana garu, appreciate your proactive outreach to investors. Every Industries Minister today has to actively market their state, engage with investors, and build confidence among job creators. Hon’ble PM Shri @narendramodi ji himself has repeatedly encouraged states to become proactive and accelerate India’s growth cycle. #AndhraPradesh will, of course, offer Tamil Nadu healthy competition! 😄 And ignore the noise - Trolls don’t create jobs. Investments do! 🙂

12 glorious years of India under Prime Minister Modi! After decades of ruthless damage inflicted on India by the Gandhi Congress, what PM Modi has achieved in just 12 years is nothing short of phenomenal. From putting Pakistan in its place to the abrogation of Article 370, from the Ram Mandir to the CAA, from Digital India to Make in India, and from Chandrayaan to a resurgent India on the global stage - the list is longer than the Nile River. India may have attained independence in 1947, but the real independence through a new era of confidence, ambition, and self-belief truly began in 2014 when PM Modi took charge. May India continue to march ahead under the stupendous leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Damodardas Modi! @narendramodi @PMOIndia Jai Hind!

First strategic blunder by Chief Minister Joseph Vijay! @CMOTamilnadu, are you in your senses? Who appointed Mr. Arun IPS as the DVAC Director? Was this done under your direct instructions? Do you even realize that he was one of the reasons that contributed to DMK’s defeat in this election? This is an officer whose name has repeatedly surfaced in discussions around katta panchayats, and @SavukkuOfficial has spoken extensively about him over the years. If this appointment is indeed true, then I must admit my confidence has taken a serious hit. Because the people did not give @TVKVijayHQ an unprecedented mandate merely for a change of faces. They voted for accountability, transparency, and the expectation that corruption would finally be confronted. How can anyone now believe that corrupt DMK ministers will be investigated without fear or favour? This is not a routine appointment. It sends a political message. And right now, that message is deeply disappointing. After receiving one of the most extraordinary mandates in Tamil Nadu's political history, why squander political capital on a decision that was entirely avoidable? I genuinely hope there is more to this story than meets the eye. Because if not, this could well go down as the first major strategic blunder of the Joseph Vijay government. @CMOTamilnadu

Certainly. I feel he should meet the press and address the people more often. Since taking oath, we have hardly heard from him publicly. Of course, it may not be fair to compare him with seasoned senior politicians at this stage. But as a leader holding public office, it is still his responsibility to take confidence building measures and maintain communication with the people.

I REPEAT - Chief Minister Joseph Vijay deserves at least 6 months before we start judging him and his government! Let’s see how unfair it would be to compare Vijay with experienced politicians like Annadurai, Karunanidhi, MGR, and Jayalalithaa. Annadurai was the leader of a political party from 1949 to 1969. By the time he became a brand-new CM in 1967, he was already a Rajya Sabha MP. Karunanidhi was a three-time MLA and the sitting PWD Minister when he became a brand-new CM in 1969. MGR had close to a 2 decades of political experience, having been associated with the Congress and later the DMK before launching his own party, ADMK. He was a one-time MLC and a two-time MLA before becoming a brand-new CM in 1977. Jayalalithaa was the Propaganda Secretary of ADMK, a Rajya Sabha MP, an MLA, and the Leader of the Opposition before becoming a brand-new CM in 1991. Even EPS became a brand-new CM in 2017, but he had already been a multiple-time ADMK MLA and Minister since 1989. If we go by the same logic, MK Stalin became a brand-new CM in 2021. But he had close to 50 years of public life experience, during which he held positions such as MLA, Mayor, Minister, Deputy CM, etc. Conversely, @actorvijay is not a seasoned politician. He was simply an actor who walked straight from cinema sets into the Chief Minister’s office because of a massive people’s mandate - a mandate I am willing to respect. His inexperience, and that of his @TVKVijayHQ has to be factored in. Hence, I feel it is a flawed argument to compare a political novice like Vijay with some of the giants of Tamil Nadu politics. That is precisely why I still feel @CMOTamilnadu deserves at least 6 months before we start judging him and his government!
Sandhya Ravishankar@sandhyaravishan

I hear a lot of people saying Vijay is a new CM and he needs time to understand and learn. When Annadurai took oath in 1967, he was a brand new CM too. So were Karunanidhi, MGR and Jayalalithaa. Did anyone give them 6 months to learn? They hit the ground running. Because they had good advisors who understood governance. The current CM's advisors know zilch about politics, let alone about governance. I'm really worried for my state.

அரசியல் சாணக்கியர் சோ ராமசாமி இருந்திருந்தால், விஜயை பெரிய anti-DMK mass force ஆக ஏற்றுக்கொண்டிருப்பார். ஆனால் அதே நேரத்தில், ‘fans-ம் crowd-மும் போதாது; DMK-வின் 60 வருட political machinery-ஐ வெல்ல structure, discipline, governance credibility வேண்டும்’ என்று கடுமையாக எச்சரித்திருப்பார்.! POV

Vijay vs Udhay will define the next decade of Tamil Nadu politics. GAME ON! Unless he makes some terrible mistakes, I have a feeling @TVKVijayHQ could rule for another two terms. @arivalayam under Udhay will function as a ruthless and aggressive opposition while steadily consolidating Udhay politically. In many ways, Tamil Nadu may once again witness a 1970s–80s style political battle reminiscent of MGR vs Karunanidhi. MGR was a charismatic mass leader whom Karunanidhi could never defeat electorally, yet Karunanidhi still remained an extraordinarily formidable opposition leader with unmatched political machinery and organizational strength. History may now repeat itself in a different form. It could once again become a battle of “Thooya Shakthi” vs “Theeya Shakthi.” CM Vijay has charisma, mass appeal, and a massive people’s mandate. Udhay, on the other hand, has the DMK’s party infrastructure, political machinery, money power, and media ecosystem behind him. It is going to be a fascinating duel. Who ultimately wins may depend entirely on who commits more political mistakes. But instinctively, I still feel Udhay may fall short every time, just like his legendary grandfather did against the charismatic MGR. Now, what happens to the other political parties? ADMK! @ADMKofficial ADMK is already politically demolished, thanks largely to EPS. The party will likely continue disintegrating because it has lost its core political relevance in Tamil Nadu. The anti-DMK plank, which once belonged to ADMK, has now effectively been occupied by CM Vijay. People who oppose the DMK no longer see ADMK as a viable alternative. NTK! @Seeman4TN Seeman’s NTK is now a political joke. His biggest strength was his slow but steady growth in vote share: 1.6% in 2016 → 3.7% in 2019 → 6.8% in 2021 → 8.2% in 2024. But now his vote share has plummeted to around 4%. A major chunk of his support came from sections of the Tamil diaspora, and he may no longer appeal to them. End of the road! TN BJP! @BJP4TamilNadu As for the TN BJP, it is almost politically dead today. What exactly has this unit achieved ideologically or electorally in the last two years? No politically aware Hindu voter will seriously back this unit anymore unless there is a complete overhaul with leadership that possesses clarity, substance, and purpose. Which ultimately leaves the central contest between Vijay and Udhay. The great Cho once famously said: “Anyone who opposes DMK will grow.” MGR grew. Jayalalithaa grew. Even @annamalai_k managed to gain traction to an extent. @EPSTamilNadu failed miserably. @actorvijay will grow. As @CMOTamilnadu once kept saying repeatedly: “Rende rendu perukku thaan pottiye - onnu TVK, innonnu DMK.” This line perhaps sums up the next decade of Tamil Nadu politics perfectly. GAME ON!

The Sanatana controversy from Udhayanidhi Stalin is a brilliant political ploy! As much as I oppose his views from an ideological standpoint (my quoted post), I must admit that this has been a politically brilliant move from Udhay. Udhay has achieved two things here: 1. He made national headlines and pushed CM Vijay out of the spotlight. In politics, media attention is everything, and Udhay seized it with absolute aplomb. 2. He forced CM Vijay to react to a highly sensitive and emotionally charged issue. If CM Vijay agrees with Udhay, he risks being seen as “DMK 2.0.” If he condemns Udhay, he will instantly be branded the BJP’s B-team. Either way, Udhay has placed CM Vijay on a sticky wicket. Madurai MLA Mustafa deliberately speaking about Sanatana Dharma also appears politically calculated. Surely, such remarks would not have been made without the tacit approval of the leadership. Mustafa may have intended to divert some limelight away from Udhay, but the larger consequence has been to place CM Vijay in an uncomfortable and politically delicate position, thanks to Udhay’s strategy. DMK has always been a formidable political force when out of power, and Udhay seems determined to carry forward that legacy with elan. It will now be interesting to watch how CM Vijay handles Udhay, especially considering that Udhay possesses greater political experience and the backing of a well-oiled political machinery called DMK. GAME ON!

From global diplomacy to Indian snacks 😄 Prime Minister Narendra Modi sharing a lighter moment with “Melody” chocolates proof that sometimes soft power also comes with sweetness. Politics aside, these small human moments are what make leaders relatable beyond speeches and summits. @PMBreakingNews @DarkNo_1 @PM_nepal_
