What legends like Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan and Pawan Kalyan attempted in different ways but couldn't achieve, Vijay now appears to have achieved on a larger scale on his first attempt itself.
Entering politics with his own party, the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam, Vijay made a bold and calculated move by contesting across constituencies rather than taking a cautious approach.
Early trends suggest that his party is not just competing but leading strongly, even positioning itself to form the government.
If this momentum holds, Vijay could become Chief Minister, marking a historic moment in modern South Indian politics.
Unlike others who faced setbacks like Rajni Kanth and Kamal Hasan or took gradual political paths like Pawan Kalyan, Vijay’s rise reflects a mix of timing, public connection and strategic execution blended with luck.
His journey shows that cinema popularity alone is not enough. It requires determination, risk-taking and the right political climate.
Observers note that Vijay’s success is a rare blend of star appeal, willpower, timing and a measure of luck. If confirmed, this could reshape how celebrity-led politics is viewed in India.
