The party district and state office bearers will participate in the meeting in which decisions regarding the 2024 general elections will be announced. IANS earlier reported that Vijay is likely to extend a helping hand to BJP in the general elections. However, neither Vijay nor his office bearers subscribe to the likely support his party would extend to the BJP in the elections.
In Tamil Nadu, two former Chief Ministers, M G Ramachandran (MGR) and J Jayalalithaa, were superstars of the Tamil tinsel world. Muthuvel Karunanidhi, DMK leader and former chief minister of the state, was one of the foremost scriptwriters in the Tamil film industry. This shows that the Tamil film industry and Dravidian politics of the state are intertwined, and the entry of Vijay may take Tamil politics by storm as he is a superstar of Tamil tinsel town.
