Popular actor Vijay has begun the process of launching his own political party in Tamil Nadu.
According to media reports, Vijay has been elected as party president. “We are in the process of registering the party with the Election Commission of India,” a key member of the team was quoted as saying by NDTV.
As per reports, around 200 members of the party’s general council had attended a meeting ahead of the registration. The party’s General Secretary and Treasurer too have been appointed and a Central Executive Committee has been constituted as well. The council has authorized Vijay to decide on the name and registration of the party and take the plunge into electoral politics.
While the official launch date is yet to be announced, reports suggest Vijay’s entry into active politics before the 2026 Tamil Nadu state elections.
The party’s name is also under wraps, but following the traditional “Kazhagam” suffix prevalent in Tamil Nadu politics, it’s likely to end with that familiar ring.
Seen as the next Rajinikanth of Tamil cinema, Vijay who has acted in 68 films has been nurturing political ambitions for over a decade. He has been involving his fan clubs in a range of charity and welfare measures including free distribution of food, educational scholarships, libraries, evening tuition, and even legal help.
