CHENNAI: Tamil superstar-turned-politician Vijay’s party, TVK, is set to celebrate its first anniversary on Wednesday at a private hotel in Mahabalipuram.

Jan Suraaj Party founder and political strategist Prashant Kishor is likely to attend the event.

TVK General Secretary N. Anand said the anniversary celebration will be led by party founder and president Vijay. He said that TVK, which was established on the principles of love, concern, and selfless service, has made remarkable progress over the past year.

He credited the party’s growing popularity to the unwavering support of the people, who have placed their trust in TVK’s vision and ideology. Around 2, 500 to 3, 000 delegates are expected to participate in the anniversary meet.

During the event, Vijay is expected to make significant announcements regarding the party’s future, including plans for the 2026 Tamil Nadu Assembly elections. In addition, TVK General Secretary Anand and election strategists John Arockiyasamy and Prashant Kishor will address the gathering.NOamil Nadu politics has been growing since his fan club, the All India Thalapathy Vijay Makkal Iyakkam (AITVMI), secured 115 out of the 169 seats it contested in the 2021 Tamil Nadu local body elections. In contrast, Kamal Haasan’s Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM) and Seeman’s Naam Tamilar Katchi (NTK) failed to win any seats. This electoral success has strengthened Vijay’s position in the state’s political landscape.

He has also made it clear that TVK will only align with parties that acknowledge his leadership. Political analysts view this as a strong indication that Vijay is setting his sights on the Chief Minister’s post in the 2026 Tamil Nadu Assembly elections.
