Vijay Congratulates Tamil Nadu Students Amid TVK's Government Formation Efforts; 10th Marksheet Goes Viral

Following the 2026 Tamil Nadu Assembly elections, actor-turned-politician Vijay, leader of Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), shared a motivational message congratulating Class 12 students on their exam results and encouraging those who did not pass to persevere. His message, emphasizing hope and success, was widely interpreted as reflecting his party's ongoing efforts to form the government after emerging as the single largest party with 108 seats but lacking a majority. Additionally, Vijay's Class 10 marksheet, showing average academic performance with a low score in Mathematics, went viral, inspiring discussions on success beyond exam scores.
