A Day of Devotion and Celebration
Trisha Krishnan began her birthday morning with a visit to the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam to seek blessings, a tradition she has maintained for years. However, the day took a more celebratory turn as she returned to Chennai.
By the time TVK was projected to win over 118 seats the simple majority required to form the government, Trisha was spotted arriving at Vijay’s beachfront residence in Neelankarai. Supporters and media gathered outside the mansion as the actress was seen smiling while entering the premises to join the private victory celebrations. The atmosphere at the residence was reportedly jubilant, with family and close associates marking both the political milestone and the actress’s birthday.
TVK’s Political Breakthrough
The 2026 elections have marked a seismic shift in Tamil Nadu’s political landscape. Under Vijay’s leadership, TVK has challenged the long-standing dominance of the DMK and AIADMK. Early trends on Monday showed TVK leading in over 120 constituencies, with Vijay himself maintaining strong leads in Perambur and Tiruchirappalli East. DYK Trisha Krishnan Wanted To Be Tamil Nadu CM?
