Tamil Nadu election 2026: With limited campaigning by Vijay, TVK faces a litmus test in debut poll

Campaigning for the Tamil Nadu Assembly election has ended, with the spotlight now on the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) party. Founded by actor-turned-politician, TVK is a new entrant to the highly contested electoral battlefield, relying on the popularity of its founder, a celebrated Kollywood star, to face the election. The party's roadshows have attracted massive crowds, particularly women and youth.
