Following the footsteps of Kamal Haasan, actor Vijay has decided to take a plunge into politics. On Friday, he announced the name of his party as Thamizhaga Vetri Kazhagam. This development comes with elections to the Lok Sabha just two months away.
However, the actor in a statement said the party will not contest the 2024 elections nor support any party. This decision was taken at the General and Executive Council Meeting of the newly formed political group.

For close to a decade now, Tamil actor/star Vijay has kept the State guessing about his political ambitions. In Tamil Nadu's cine-fuelled world of politics this is nothing new. Superstar Rajinikanth kept people guessing for over 25 years before finally bringing an end to the speculation about his political entry.
Vijay is a huge star in Tamil Nadu, with a fan base among the youth that few others, even pan Indian stars, can match. His appeal cuts across multiple states in the south, and his films for long have set the box office counters jingling.
When the Vijay Makkal Iyakkam (Vijay People's Movement), the fans organisation that often functions as his social service platform, announced it would garland the statue of Babasaheb Ambedkar on April 14 at various places across the state, the speculation about his political entry reignited. The VMI has also launched a drive to collect booth-level and ward-level information about voters, information of the kind an organisation would need if it were to transform into a political party.
Is Vijay planning to enter politics? What would be his ideological position? From whatever we know so far through the dialogues/messages from his films, he has been critical of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)'s policies, while not overtly cosying up to either the Dravidian or the Tamil nationalist parties. His family shares close ties with the ruling Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK), but Vijay's own equation with his father, well-known director SA Chandrasekhar, has been strained.
His VMI unofficially contested in the local body elections in Tamil Nadu last year, and 10 candidates won in municipalities and town panchayats; 129 were elected ward members in the rural local body elections. All these candidates contested as independents on different symbols, and Vijay had not even actively canvassed for votes. The organisation extended its support to these candidates, and they emerged victorious.
Star power is no longer a guarantee for political success in Tamil Nadu. Today, while stars continue to draw audiences to their films, this does not translate into votes. Kamal Haasan and his struggling Makkal Needhi Maiyam will vouch for this. Vijay is almost a recluse who makes limited public appearances, and is also far from being a firebrand speaker (Tamil Nadu loves fiery speakers). Yet he still has immense popularity, especially in those under the age of 40, many of whom can be seen worshiping his cut-outs during his movie releases.
