To appeal to the legion of voters still loyal to the AIADMK, Vijay must borrow their stars<\/h2>\n

At his rally in Tamil Nadu\u2019s Erode district, actor-turned-politician Thalapathy\u00a0Vijay let out a series of fiery roars, whipping up a frenzy of passions amid his legion. Large, energetic crowds are a permanent feature of Vijay\u2019s poll rallies, and it was no different at Erode.<\/p>\n

Huge crowds spilt onto the roads adjoining the venue. Increased police presence provided a controlling effect and yet, there was no dearth of daredevilry.<\/p>\n

As Vijay managed to begin his speech and speak over the cacophonous reception from his fans, he belted a series of powerful statements delivered in his cinematic style, about the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) being an \u201cevil force”, and his wonder over why the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) nurtured a near-maniacal opposition to the DMK.<\/p>\n

And then, capping it all, came the line he was waiting to deliver: \u201cNo one can claim Anna [CN Annadurai] and MGR [MG Ramachandran] as their own. They are all assets of Tamil Nadu.<\/a>“<\/p>\n

In his speech in Erode, for the first time, he also made a reference to Jayalalithaa.<\/p>\n

For anyone looking to read into Vijay\u2019s internal struggle as a politician, the above line would serve as light.<\/p>\n

It is that of a new entrant hunting for an ideologue to pivot their party around. It reflects the tearing need to hitch his wagon to a higher, revered force, to borrow their light, to be seen in this auspice and be seen as someone following in their footsteps. For, Vijay <\/a>has crash-landed \u2014 not parachuted \u2014 onto the scene of Tamil Nadu\u2019s politics.<\/p>\n
