Tamil Nadu's April 23 Assembly elections face disruption from actor Vijay's new political party TVK, contesting all 234 seats. Vijay's popularity attracts significant youth and women support, challenging the traditional DMK-AIADMK duopoly. However, his appeal appears concentrated among voters under 35-40 years old. Analysts note his emergence as an unpredictable factor, though skeptics question whether young supporters have reached voting age. Traditional parties acknowledge the demographic shift.
