2011 was a watershed moment for the DMDK when the AIADMK-led alliance swept the polls winning 203 seats. While AIADMK won 150 seats with then party chief J Jayalalithaa becoming chief minister, alliance partner DMDK emerged as the second-largest party in the assembly with 29, upstaging DMK which managed to win only 23. This enabled Vijayakanth to become the Leader of the Opposition.
