But this wasn’t his first public moment involving Vijay. After the election results came out, Rajinikanth congratulated him. He posted on X, “My congratulations to Thiru Vijay, President of the victorious Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam, and to the members of his party, on their resounding victory in the recently concluded Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly elections.”

Vijay was sworn in as Chief Minister on Sunday (May 10), after his party clinched the majority. The ceremony happened at Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor Stadium in Chennai, with Governor Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar administering the oath.

During the state assembly elections held in Tamil Nadu in May 2026, the political party founded by an actor-turned-political figure, namely, TVK, won 108 out of 234 seats contested for the first time in their political career. Even though the party became the largest political party in the assembly, they failed to get the majority by just 10 seats.
