Tvk Vijay: "This Force Of TVK Will Win Even If No Friendship Force (Alliance) Is With Us"

Sending a strong message shortly after the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) questioned him and his upcoming film was blocked, actor-politician Vijay today said he "won't surrender under pressure" and "won't bow down". Vijay made the remarks at a strategy meeting in Mamallapuram attended by 3,000 state and district-level party functionaries.

Referring to the upcoming Tamil Nadu election, in which his party TVK is likely to make a poll debut, Vijay told his supporters, "It is not just an election, but a democratic war. You are my commandos who will fight this war." Targeting the DMK and the main opposition AIADMK, Vijay said, "Those in politics have forgotten Anna, including those whose party's name has Anna." Anna here refers to CN Annadurai, Tamil Nadu's former Chief Minister and a key ideologue in Dravidian politics.
