The Tamil Nadu Assembly election results have positioned C. Joseph Vijay as a formidable force, drawing comparisons with major film stars who entered politics.
Within just two years of launching his party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam, Vijay has emerged as a major player in the state; a rare feat in today’s political landscape.
Historically, only N T Rama Rao achieved a faster political rise, coming to power within nine months of launching his party.
While that record still stands, Vijay’s progress is being seen as remarkable given the current complex political environment.
The discussion has now shifted to a comparison with Pawan Kalyan.
Though he launched the Jana Sena Party in 2014, he entered electoral politics only in 2019. In that election, his party won just one seat, and Pawan Kalyan himself lost in both constituencies he contested.
In contrast, Vijay not only strengthened his party’s position but also secured victories in the seats he contested, boosting his personal mandate.
This has sparked discussions around “Vijay’s 2” versus “Pawan Kalyan’s 2,” referring to their respective electoral outcomes.
Despite facing several challenges and controversies during the campaign, Vijay’s performance reflects a strong connect with voters.
The comparison highlights how differently two major film stars have fared in their early political journeys.




Panwala gadu don’t have confidence on him..he taught at least he get mla seat that is fine..useless fellow missed the chance
It’s not about STRONG CONNECT. Tamilians will PRIORITIZE their state FIRST.
Unlike our state where they don’t even consider if the PERSON who they are voting for Is CORRUPT, HIS CASTE, HIS OWN PERSONAL FAMILY ISSUES, etc. Mana vaalaki yenthasepu veedu REDDY, KAMMA, KAPPU, etc. Kaavali. Vaadu asallu development cheysthaada, manaki jobs theysthaada, Suparipalana andhisthaada, manaki andhubatulo vuntaadu; ivi yehvi akarleydhu 😡🤭
One thing about Vijay winning is putting a pause to all caste politics in Tamil Nadu. As vijay does not have a majority I hope he will not get support from small caste based parties with one seat here and there !
theh why builds capital in khamaravathi..shoud have followed sivarama krishna commission report and set it up in ongole.!!!
What is Vijay’s 2 anyway???
.
First of all, when Pawan started the party things were in a mess due to failure of Praja Rajyam party. He has to gain public confidence again.
But recent elections in TN politics there is a vaccumn due to the death of jayalaitha and AIADMK dont have proper leader. Vijay took this to his advantage!
G a cant live without pawan.. even after 7 yrs they only have pavans 2 as reference to survive in news
PK is a no body without our great CBN.
Vijay oka place defeat annavu? U changed ur words now
PK has nothing left to compare. We had a hope for him to become the CM. But he ended up selling himself to CBN for lifetime.
Really? U had hope? Be truthful to urself.. u had nothing but troll for him
Pawala gadu used by cbn..Vijay not used by any one ..finally pawala became erri pushpam
Paw ala used by cbn..Vi jay used and believed in his fan following finally paw ala be came gorrey
Bring in Kamal Hassan and then do the comparison. Where each stands now.
Pawala is kukka please don’t compare with vijay asalu who is pk before who strive hard all single sigguleni janama Pawan di samy
Pk is do g please don’t compare he is murky scum of ap
Its not the win.. hope he does good things too more like pk does.. offcourse lifeless useless dont understand what good is and just troll his good works. Good luck vijay
People didn;t take Pwan seriously in 2019, more over YCP successfully projected him as B team of TDP. So people buried both the parties as they have decided to give one chance to Jagan.
In 2024, Pawn;s mania can be seen in elections, his strike rate was 100%. If his party contested alone, he might have scored more seats, but he has not taken any risk to defeat Jagan by aligning with TDP and BJP. There are no such compulsions for Vijay, He himself surprised with the results. Tamil people wanted to get rid of Dravidian parties. If BJP contested alone in TN, it might get more seats, as there is some sort of Hindu consolidation also.
Pawalanjoduku is a paleru. Vijay, with this unprecedented victory, is on a whole different level. Pawala is a joker, a pimp for the Kapu vote. An illiterate, low class loafer.
Only~a~fool~will~compare~these~both,~time~and~space~are~totally~different,~Logistics~between~voters~for~AP~and~TN~are~totally~different,~I~can~definitely~expect~such~an~article~from~you…pulka~gadivi~kabatti~lol
Nothing, j#ggu made ap people b@karas in 2019 … Pk didn’t make any freebie promises unlike vijay…
lot of genius yellow media supporters on this platform predicted that vijay is not pavan..now in a way it is true… Vijay is bigger than pawala. Way to go Vijay!!! Dravidan culture will never bow to aryan culture!!!
Similarly we cannot compare YSR garu with our DUMB JAGLAQ. Yemmi matladuthado, Yemmi cheysthado vaadikey theylavadhu. Peydhala patla prema chupisthunatllu mathram baaga natisthaadu. Let’s see his HUGS & KISSES again in 2028 & 2029 🫣🤭
GA knows that he will get views only on PAWAN’s name. If he only write about JAGLAQ, more than half his viewership is gone. MARK MY WORD, Potta kuuti kosam GA vidhyallu 🫣😡
Electioneering is different.. being good and doing good for society is different. Pawan is here for change.. even if it is small AP and future citizens will benefit. Br ambedkar lost elections.. so was jp.. but these r all ppl with good intentions and uphold values better than winning. Not sure fully abt vijay, hope he does good to TN. Again pawan predicted dmk will wash out and that almost happened with stalin losing.
pawala should have launched his party in TN…he missed a great opportunity would have won 150+ seats for sure!!!
Paawala billa vs single lion
Pawala billa cont make sound without chembu
