Actress and politician Hema Malini compared Thalapathy Vijay’s performance in the Tamil Nadu Assembly Elections to that of prior actor-turned-politicians MGR and Jayalalitha. She called him the “probable new CM of Tamil Nadu,” while lauding the TVK’s lead in the elections.
“Puducherry has seen another BJP repeat victory, which goes to prove that good governance carries the party to success! As for Tamil Nadu, the state has veered away from Dravidian supremacy, which had ruled the state for many years. The youth have voted in hordes for the new first-time political star, the recent film star turned politician, Joseph Vijay. This was a tsunami, completely unexpected, which swept through the state which has seen the rule of film personalities MGR and Jayalalitha earlier. I wish Vijay good luck in his new role – most probably that of the new CM of Tamil Nadu!,” wrote Hema Malini on her X handle.

The actor Chiyaan Vikram called Thalapathy Vijay’s performance “historic.”
Making a remarkable electoral debut, Vijay established himself as the true “Jana Nayagan” of Tamil Nadu. His party was leading in 99 constituencies and won 10 seats in the 234-member Tamil Nadu assembly, according to ECI results at 5 pm.
Vijay is likely to seek support from smaller parties to reach the halfway mark of 118 seats. Vijay has joined the league of iconic actor-turned-leaders like NT Rama Rao, MG Ramachandran, and J Jayalalithaa.
TVK’s victory could also mark a historic shift in Tamil Nadu, which has seen power alternating between the alliances led by Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) and All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK). (ANI)
