In the statement, he further said, “Currently our party has applied for registration keeping in mind the time required for the work… Politics is not a hobby for me; It is my deepest passion and I want to devote myself fully to it.”

Thalapathy Vijay who is known for his performances ‘Theri’, ‘Master’, ‘Bigil’, ‘Beast’ ‘Puli’, ‘Thuppakki’, ‘Mersal’, and ‘Kaththi’ was last seen in action film ‘Leo’ which also starred Sanjay Dutt.

Speaking on his films, he added, “On my behalf, I have already agreed to complete another film related duties without disturbing the party work and fully engage in politics for the service of the people. I consider that as my debt of gratitude to the people of Tamil Nadu.”

“To my best, the Vijay Makkal Iyakkam has been doing a lot of public welfare activities for the past many years. But a lot of political changes cannot be made only through a non-profit organisation, a political power is needed. You all know the current political scenario. Wrongful administration and corrupt politics is on one hand, on the other hand discriminative and fascist politics to divide our people. On two sides obstacles have been placed for our development and unity.”

The announcement prompted spontaneous celebrations from his fans.
