In a bold political debut, Tamil cinema's leading star Vijay announced his new party, Tamizhaga Vetri Kazhagam (TVK), in Tamil Nadu, targeting divisive forces and corruption.

During his public address in Vikravandi, Vijay emphasized that his party stands for secular social justice, guided by historical figures such as EVR Periyar and K Kamaraj. He delivered a critique of Tamil Nadu's current political landscape, particularly the Dravida model governance championed by rival parties.
