Please know and understand the Modi–Shah duo! One leader has been in public office for more than 25 consecutive years (multiple-time Chief Minister and multiple-time Prime Minister) and has never lost an election in his entire political career. The other leader is a ruthless, aggressive, result-oriented election strategist and taskmaster whose every move is executed with measure, purpose, and razor-sharp intent. This duo has delivered immensely for India over the past decade and remains focused on working harder, contributing more, and building further. The duo does not have time for social media hype, histrionics, tantrums, or drama surrounding any individual, for that matter. And if we are naive enough to think that we understand politics better than Narendra Modi and Amit Shah, there is nothing funnier than that. This too shall pass!!!!!

Indians love sensationalism, and Annamalai provides it in abundance! What if, after two days, Annamalai says, “PM Modi is my mentor, and I came into politics only because of him. Hence, I will continue with the BJP and serve the party in whatever capacity possible”? Hasn’t he said this multiple times in the past? Check out this video. If that turns out to be the case, what happens to all the hype (natural or artificial), analyses, and speculation that have been doing the rounds over the past few days? Indians love sensationalism, and Annamalai provides it every bit! K.Annamalai One more fun fact worth mentioning: the end of those two days will coincide with the eve of his birthday!

Mr. Joseph Vijay, please realize that you are no more an actor but the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu! Yov, Vijay, do you even realize that your TVK Vijay got the people's mandate and that you are now the CMOTamilNadu? Why is this still sounding like a staged campaign speech? Don't say it is because of the Trichy by-election, because the election dates have not been announced yet. Be a man and please talk to the press about your plans, policies, and the predicaments of running a coalition government! I still have hopes for you. Please don't disappoint me, man! Vijay TVK Vijay CMOTamilNadu

Never trust someone who pretends to be a Hindu - Suriya is a classic example! Suriya Sivakumar I came across this video of Suriya and Jyothika visiting Tirupati. What makes this amusing is that Suriya maintained complete silence when Jyothika questioned why people donate money to temples instead of hospitals. Not a word. Not even a clarification. But now suddenly, temple visits and pilgrimage optics? If temple donations are supposedly a problem, then why the need for publicized Tirupati trips and spiritual branding now? This is exactly why many people see cinema celebrities as deeply opportunistic. Religion for them often appears less like faith and more like image management depending on the political climate and public mood. Suriya has spent years carefully aligning himself with the Dravidian ecosystem while conveniently balancing religious optics whenever needed. That contradiction is becoming increasingly obvious to people. I also hear *Karuppu* is struggling because audiences are slowly becoming tired of subtle propaganda packaged as commercial cinema. People can tolerate ideology. What they dislike is hypocrisy. Never trust someone who wears Hinduism only when it is convenient.

Edappadi Palaniswami becoming CM after Aadhav screwed Vijay? I just spoke to an IAS officer (our family friend) who is very close to the ADMK leadership. He says EPS is trying to become CM with the support of the DMK. All small parties in the alliance will get berths in the next cabinet. Another insight shared by him is that it was Aadhav Arjuna who forced Vijay to accept Congress support and go to the Governor. The experienced Sengottaiyan warned him, knowing the consequences, but he didn’t listen. Vijay paid a heavy price because of Aadhav Arjuna! Now, all TVK Vijay MLAs are threatening to resign if DMK and ADMK come together.

Does the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu Joseph Vijay Feel sullied by talking to the press? As I have mentioned multiple times, CMOTamilNadu should gradually begin interacting more openly with the press. And if he still feels uncomfortable dealing with the Tamil Nadu media ecosystem, Delhi may actually provide him with a softer and more neutral setting to begin. Even in Delhi, he seems to be staying within his own cocoon. What exactly does the Chief Minister think of himself and the press? The last person who understood that he has become CMOTamilNadu is Vijay!

On this eventful day, I realized MK Stalin is a Gentleman and EPS is a Scumbag! Till this morning, there were talks between the DMK first family and EPS to explore the possibility of a DMK–ADMK coalition government. The person who was most interested was Durga Stalin. She always wanted to make her son the next Chief Minister. In fact, it was her long-standing wish to see her son becoming CM, hence all the temple visits. The deal that was being discussed was a 50:50 arrangement, where Udhayanidhi would be CM for 2½ years and EPS for the rest. Now you can decipher why EPS locked up his MLAs in some resort. He feared his MLAs might desert him, support Vijay, and form a TVK–ADMK coalition government instead. ADMK MLAs know very well that they have no future; hence, they felt Vijay could give them a lifeline. Isn’t EPS a scumbag? Edappadi K Palaniswami-SayYEStoWomenSafety&AIADMK When the idea was pitched to MK Stalin, he summarily rejected it, saying it would hurt the DMK’s future badly. He also asked the CPI, CPM, and VCK to support Vijay in forming the next government (probably with sinister motives, which are not uncommon in politics). Without his permission, these parties would not have supported TVK Vijay I have a million reasons to criticize MK Stalin on governance and administration. But, today, I realized that he is a perfect gentleman! Hats Off, Sir! M.K.Stalin

Udhayanidhi looks visibly upset, annoyed, and uncomfortable as the Chief Minister takes oath! Udhayanidhi thought he could easily become Chief Minister purely because of his lineage, without hard work, sincerity, or vision. Due to Udhayanidhi's god-like attitude and his tendency to treat Tamil Nadu like a fiefdom, Tamil voters used Vijay and his TVK Vijay as tools to give DMK a royal drubbing, with even his father and the sitting Chief Minister himself losing his own seat. Now, Udhayanidhi seems to be in denial about everything that has transpired over the past week. He looks visibly upset, irritated, and uncomfortable as the CMOTamilNadu takes oath. What a spectacular fall from grace for the sorry loser Udhayanidhi. BTW, he blocked me for my pointed questions about his non-performance as an MLA, Sports Minister, and Deputy CM!

MK Stalin’s family divided over an alliance with ADMK to keep TVK out! The latest update is that Durga Stalin, Udhayanidhi, and Sabareesan are trying to convince MK Stalin to go for an alliance with ADMK on a 50:50 arrangement, where Udhayanidhi would be CM for the first 2½ years and EPS for the remaining term. The trio does not want Vijay to become CM because he humiliated the DMK electorally. Despite enormous pressure, MK Stalin is not budging. Meanwhile, EPS has still not released his MLAs from the resort. This means he is still in the game to become CM with the DMK’s support, with the promise of making some of his MLAs ministers. He fears that otherwise his MLAs might desert him, support Vijay, and form a TVK–ADMK coalition government instead, without EPS. ADMK MLAs know very well that they have no future; hence, they feel Vijay could give them a lifeline. Meanwhile, TVK Vijay is committing blunder after blunder and ruining the goodwill and sympathy Vijay had garnered a few days back! A section from MK Stalin's family is now raking up the AMMK forgery claim against Vijay!

Producer K. Rajan’s death raises disturbing and deeply uncomfortable questions! He was 85 years old. Can an elderly man at that age really jump off a bridge so easily? The circumstances simply do not sit right. K. Rajan was not just another producer. He was one of the very few voices in the Tamil film industry who openly and repeatedly spoke about the unhealthy economics of modern cinema, especially mainstream stars swallowing massive portions of film budgets and pushing producers towards financial ruin. For years, he warned that the industry was becoming unsustainable. So naturally, questions will arise. Was this truly a suicide? Or is there something far more sinister behind this tragedy? What exactly is happening inside the Tamil film industry today? Why does the industry repeatedly witness stories of financial collapse, emotional breakdown, silence, fear, and now an emerging suicide culture? Will the leading stars of the industry finally come together and address these issues seriously instead of pretending everything is normal? And most importantly, will the CMOTamilNadu who himself comes from the cinema industry call for a proper press conference, acknowledge the gravity of the situation, and initiate serious discussions on the state of the industry? Because this no longer looks like an isolated tragedy. There is something fundamentally flawed and disturbing!

Annamalai has a very bright future ahead! After Joseph Vijay, the biggest beneficiary of this shocking election outcome is Annamalai. If he can launch his own party and make it an Annamalai vs Vijay contest in the next election, he has bright chances of doing well by galvanizing the Hindu vote bank. Stalin and EPS will be close to 80 in 2031, and Annamalai has age on his side. Moreover, this is Vijay’s first term, and he is expected to make mistakes due to inexperience. History shows that most first terms of leaders have been pathetic (1971 to 1976 under Karunanidhi and 1991 to 1996 under Jayalalitha). Annamalai has a bright future ahead, and I hope he capitalizes on it. K.Annamalai

You can’t blame the Governor for Vijay’s mistake! People are comparing the 2017 Sasikala episode with the 2026 Vijay episode, which is fundamentally wrong. The 2017 Sasikala episode was a deliberate sabotage by BJP for political reasons. But the 2026 Vijay episode is a result of Vijay being a political novice and his TVK Vijay lacking good legal and political advisors. Vijay should have claimed stake based on his 107 seats. Instead, he presented a letter of support as an alliance that didn’t have a majority, and Governor did what he had to do. Vijay’s electoral performance proves popularity and fanfare can win you an election, but forming a government is not that easy. Vijay won the election but is struggling to form a government. It was his mistake, and the Governor cannot be blamed!

The exit polls have been unfair and unkind to Seeman and his NTK! I am not sure why NTK has not been mentioned by most of the exit polls. They seem to focus only on the DMK, NDA, and TVK, as though NTK doesn’t exist or is an ‘also-ran’ party. NTK is a recognized party with a dedicated vote share of 8.2%. Brushing the party off just because there is an actor in the fray is unfair and unkind. My intuition is that NTK will emerge as a dark horse in this election and will cross the 10% mark, as it has shown consistent growth over the last decade. Despite my differences with Seeman and his ideologies, I have always applauded his hard work, his consistent stand of contesting alone, and his positive view of social justice, especially his decision to field six Brahmin candidates. Despite supporting and voting for NDA, I still wish NTK does well in this election and Seeman wins from Karaikudi. All the very best! செந்தமிழன் சீமான் சீமான் நாம் தமிழர் கட்சி | Naam Tamilar Katchi

As crazy as it may sound, what if the Modi–Amit Shah duo used Joseph Vijay as a stone to kill two birds (the Dravidian parties) at the same time? You may think I am crazy, and you may hurl abuses through quotes and comments, but I don’t care. I am just sharing my perspective with reasoning. Please analyze every question of mine logically and with an analytical bent of mind! Did you notice that, after Vijay went to Delhi for the CBI interrogation, he was more confident than ever? Did you notice the whistle symbol being given to Vijay, which every layman can relate to? Did you know Vijay’s poll candidates were from diverse backgrounds representing all walks of society, and even until February 2026, his 234-candidate list was not finalized? How did everything happen after his visit to Delhi? Did you notice that all party movements, like candidate selection based on social engineering, happened silently? Who else is more experienced in social engineering than the BJP? Did you notice that Vijay never targeted the BJP in 2026? Did you know that leading IT companies in Chennai held town halls and decided, as organizations, to vote for Vijay? Did these companies receive instructions from Delhi? Did you know Vijay never stepped into Hindu temples before, even during campaigns? It happened only right before the election results. Can it be seen as a collaboration between Vijay and the BJP? Did you know ADMK and many second-rung BJP leaders wanted an alliance with Vijay, but PM Modi and Amit Shah were particular that Vijay contest alone? Why? Do you know market expansion strategy? If you don’t have the time, resources, and credible manpower, you outsource the task. Could Vijay be Delhi’s face in TN? TVK Vijay You may ask me, “but how did Vijay accept Congress’s support”? Didn’t he break the Congress–DMK alliance that PM Modi has long wanted to disrupt? Ask yourself, why should Vijay empower EPS and his declining ADMK, which came third in this election? If Vijay accepts support from one of the ADMK factions, it will further weaken ADMK and the faction will merge with TVK. ADMK will be demolish for good. If DMK and ADMK join hands to take on TVK, as rumoured, Vijay may join hands with the BJP to take on both Dravidian parties, and it will be a fight to the finish. Now ask this question to yourself - Didn’t Vijay weaken both the DMK and ADMK? TN is heavily influenced by Dravidianism. The only weapon against it is cinema popularity. Check out this speech from Vijay. He sounds so confident even before polling that he is going to sweep the polls. Why was he so confident? Whose backing did he have? What if the Modi–Amit Shah duo used someone with immense cinema popularity, Vijay as a stone to kill both Dravidian parties at the same time? Only a diamond can cut another diamond! Some battles are won differently — NEVER EVER underestimate PM Modi and HM Amit Shah! Narendra Modi Amit Shah

Chief Minister Mr. Joseph Vijay is setting an admirable precedent! It is refreshing to see the Chief Minister perhaps trying to create a new political culture by meeting MK Stalin who is not only his predecessor, but also someone whom he criticized to no end before the election. Mr. Vijay clearly identified his principal political opponent during the campaign, and his attacks were focused, targeted, relentless, and at times even personal. Mr. Vijay has also met several senior political leaders across party lines, including Dr. Anbumani Ramadoss, Mr. Vaiko, Mr. Seeman, and many others, by personally visiting their residences. Former Chief Ministers Karunanidhi, MGR, Jayalalithaa, EPS, and Stalin have never done anything like this. Even if this is partly optics, it is still a mature democratic gesture that deserves to be welcomed and appreciated!

Feel terribly sorry for Dr.Palanivel Thiaga Rajan and his emotional “Retirement Speech”! When DMK came back to power in 2021, Dr P Thiaga Rajan (PTR) (and his 'sold' pedigree) was seen as someone who could bring a turnaround to the state’s finances. But he was so naïve and alien to DMK politics that he started seriously questioning finances. As a result, he exposed the DMK first family tooth and nail. Since then, he has been relegated from the Finance Ministry (arguably the second most powerful ministry) to the relatively innocuous IT Ministry, which suggests he was sidelined not because of his performance but because of his honesty. If you are honest, you can never be with DMK! Dr P Thiaga Rajan (PTR) should have instantly quit DMK and reached out to "other options" that would have “onboarded” him with “open arms.” If he had done that, today he wouldn’t be weeping like this. I feel terribly sorry for Dr. Palanivel Thiaga Rajan and the lack of judgement that has resulted in his possible “Retirement Speech”!

I REPEAT - Kerala is the most anti-national state in India! After seeing what is happening in Kerala around needless glorification of beef, I am convinced Kerala was the first state that alienated itself from the nationalistic scheme of things. Kerala is the very first state to embrace Communism. No wonder the state’s politics is caught between Congress and Communists. I wrote this quoted piece long back and feel happy that I did and I can’t express in words how vindicated I feel. Kerala is the most anti-national state in India, and Tamil Nadu is not far behind!
