Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], May 5 (ANI): Congratulatory messages have been pouring in for Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) chief Vijay following his party’s massive performance on debut in Tamil Nadu assembly polls.
In a historic debut, TVK chief Vijay has secured a landslide victory in the Perambur constituency, winning by a massive margin of 53,715 votes. The actor-turned-politician is also maintaining a steady lead in Tiruchirappalli (East), reflecting a broader blockbuster performance for his party across the state.
As per the last trends, the TVK is leading in 107 seats out of 234 in Tamil Nadu assembly, signalling a major shift in the state’s political landscape. Although still short of the halfway mark of 118 seats, Vijay is likely to get support from smaller parties of both Dravidian alliances.
The actor-politician’s fans, followers, friends, and fellow artists from the industry also shared their heartfelt greetings across social media platforms.
The latest to join in was Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM) chief and veteran actor Kamal Haasan.
