Tamil Nadu BJP president Nainar Nagendran dismissed actor‑turned‑politician Vijay and his party Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) after Vijay claimed TVK would win a majority in the upcoming Tamil Nadu Assembly elections and form the next government. Nagendran called Vijay “completely inexperienced” and said he should engage more with grassroots politics, predicting TVK would fail to win any seats. TVK previously cited an internal survey showing it close behind the ruling DMK in vote share, while Vijay insisted his party would not join alliances with either the INDIA bloc or the BJP‑led NDA.
