Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], May 5 : Congratulatory messages have been pouring in for Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) chief Vijay following his party's massive performance on debut in Tamil Nadu assembly polls.

In a historic debut, TVK chief Vijay has secured a landslide victory in the Perambur constituency, winning by a massive margin of 53,715 votes. The actor-turned-politician is also maintaining a steady lead in Tiruchirappalli (East), reflecting a broader blockbuster performance for his party across the state.

As per the last trends, the TVK is leading in 107 seats out of 234 in Tamil Nadu assembly, signalling a major shift in the state's political landscape. Although still short of the halfway mark of 118 seats, Vijay is likely to get support from smaller parties of both Dravidian alliances.

The actor-politician's fans, followers, friends, and fellow artists from the industry also shared their heartfelt greetings across social media platforms.

The latest to join in was Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM) chief and veteran actor Kamal Haasan.

In a post on X, Rajinikanth wrote, "My congratulations to Thiru Vijay, President of the victorious Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam, and to the members of his party, on their resounding victory in the recently concluded Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly elections."

Actor Dhanush also congratulated Vijay over his historic win in his debut elections."My heartfelt congratulations to Mr. Vijay sir and the Tamil Nadu Victory Kazhagam, who, having come to the field and contested in their very first election, have earned the immense support and love of the people of Tamil Nadu and are set to form the government," he posted.

Among others were A R Murugadoss, Vijay Deverakonda, Rashmika Mandanna, Kajal Aggarwal, Sivakarthikeyan, Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, and Hema Malini.

Making a remarkable electoral debut, Vijay, through his party Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), has established himself as the true "Jana Nayagan" of Tamil Nadu.
