Actor Vijay Unveils Flag, Anthem of His New Political Party

Popular Tamil film actor Vijay on Thursday unveiled the flag and anthem of his new political party Thamizhaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), in Chennai. His party will enter electoral politics in the 2026 assembly polls in the state.

The TVK flag has avoided the red, black and white colours of the two Dravidian parties in the state. It is maroon in colour with a yellow band in between, sporting two elephants with a flower at the centre.

The flower is “Vagai” that symbolises victory in Tamil history and literature. The video anthem has a largely victory in the battlefield theme.

Speaking at the ceremony, Vijay said “This flag is not just a party flag but a flag for Tamil Nadu and the state’s victory”.

Vijay also urged his party workers to celebrate the flag hoisting across the state with due permission.

In Tamil Nadu, scriptwriters and actors have become chief ministers including Annadurai, Karunanidhi, MGR and Jayalalithaa.

But veteran star Sivaji Ganesan, Vijayakanth and Sarath Kumar could not rise in politics beyond the initial success.

Superstar Rajinikanth opted out of politics, while Kamal Haasan is yet to make a significant impact.
