From the stars to a star — Vijay's Neelankarai home saw two unforgettable visitors as TVK stormed past 100 seats and Tamil Nadu rewrote its political history.

Radhan Pandit arrives at Vijay's Neelankarai residence in a red car, bouquet in hand — his 'tsunami victory' prediction had just become Tamil Nadu's political reality.
Tamil Nadu woke up to more than just election results on May 4 — it woke up to a full-blown celebration at actor-turned-politician Vijay’s residence in Neelankarai, Chennai. As early leads for his party Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) started pouring in from across the state’s 234 constituencies, the buzz outside Thalapathy‘s home matched the excitement at counting centres. Two very different visitors — one who reads the stars, one who is a star — made the day unforgettable.
TVK’s surge, with leads in over 100 seats, had workers dancing in the streets. And in the middle of it all, two visits captured everyone’s attention.
Who Was The First Through The Door?
As vote counting was underway, astrologer Radhan Pandit — Vijay’s personal astrologer — arrived at the Neelankarai residence in a red car, holding a bouquet of flowers.
The visit felt almost theatrical, and for good reason. Pandit had earlier described Vijay’s horoscope as “extraordinary" and even called it a “tsunami horoscope", predicting a major political rise.
He had also boldly dismissed exit polls, claiming TVK could secure 140 to 170 seats and at least 45% of the vote share. With the numbers looking good, Radhan Pandit’s arrival with flowers felt less like a visit and more like a victory lap
And Then Trisha Walked In — On Her Birthday, No Less
Actor Trisha Krishnan was seen offering prayers at the Tirumala Tirupati Temple on May 4, coinciding with her 43rd birthday and the counting day for the Tamil Nadu Assembly elections.

From the divine to the celebratory — Trisha then arrived at TVK chief Vijay’s residence in Chennai, with TVK leading in over 100 seats at the time.
Dressed in a cheerful pink outfit and all smiles, she met Vijay and conveyed her best wishes. The video of Trisha at Vijay’s residence quickly went viral, as Kollywood stars joined the celebrations with TVK emerging as the top party in early trends.
What Does This Mean For Tamil Nadu?
For TVK workers, these weren’t just celebrity appearances — they were symbols. An astrologer who staked his reputation on a “tsunami" victory, and a beloved actress choosing to spend her birthday celebrating alongside her friend. On a day when Tamil Nadu’s political map was being redrawn, Neelankarai became its most-watched address.
