Pic Of The Day: Worked For PK, What About Vijay?

The electoral campaign in South India are heavily inspired by one and another where it comes to poll management and also manifesto promises. We have a new citation of this as a quirky electoral plan that was used in AP is now being replicated in Tamil Nadu.

The story in discussion today has everything to do with Pawan Kalyan from Andhra Pradesh and Thalapathy Vijay from Tamil Nadu. The common factor here is that both these stars enjoyed huge film patronage and then decided to enter politics.

Coming to the picture that has grabbed our attention today, we see a tactic deployed by an NDA candidate in 2024 AP election being replicated in Tamil Nadu. The first picture is obviously from the election campaign in AP where an NDA candidate cleverly used PK’s banner in the roadshow as the star was busy campaigning elsewhere. The candidate made full use of PK’s image even in his absence.

A similar scenario is repeated in Tamil Nadu now as a TVK candidate has cleverly used Vijay’s life sized banner in his electoral campaign in his constituency.

This strategy worked brilliantly in Andhra Pradesh as it obviously wrote on the superstar NDA wave that was already within the public. Just a banner of Kalyan was enough to do the job for the respective candidate here. It might not be as straightforward for Vijay’s candidate in Tamil Nadu, but the effort is to be seen here.

One social media user, even pointed out that Vijay is famous for remaking Telugu films, and his fans are also notoriously using AP’s tactics in Tamil Nadu elections.
