CHENNAI: Joseph Vijay has pulled off the unthinkable by winning over 106 seats in his debut elections in Tamil Nadu. A party needs a majority of 118 seats to form a government. It won’t be that difficult for Vijay to ally with independents and Congress leaders to reach those numbers.

Despite attempts to malign, familial discord made public and the Karur tragedy, Vijay spectacularly emerged as the winner, breaking all odds. Many actors have joined the line to wish him well on his dream debut in elections. One major name among the list is Suriya.

“Receiving the love and support of people is a blessing. Tamil Nadu has great faith in my friend Vijay. My heartfelt congratulations to him as he is about to begin a new chapter in Tamil Nadu politics,” wrote Suirya on social media.
