Huge congratulations to Vijay for pulling up this historic victory. I am still in awe how did he managed to pull so much votes… I really admire his winning strategies (if he really had one) or all these were a fluke.
Strategies I assume:
- sparks curiosity and keeping yourself lowkey without a press meet and interview (the more you speak, the more people can find your flaws)
- right words in his speech and campaigns
- studied Tamil Nadu peoples mindset quite well with catchy songs for his party and showed humility wherever needed
- His AURA! Stayed calm and sprinkled his charm.
- Strongly went against the giants party who had stains (bad reputation) so his party will look fresh and new.
- Of course, the social media PRs.
Overall, Vijay and his team did a very good job.
But …… like the meme says the story is just about to begin. The quiet, secretive, silent Vijay - does he really have what it takes to be a good leader who could bring changes? Being a leader for a nation takes alot - diplomacy at the right time, quick smart decisive move, strong vision for long term development and economic plans so and so.
Having said that, none of us have zero idea what sort of leader he is going to be. Tamil Nadu people have taken a 50:50 chance - leap of faith. If he does well, good for him and the people. If he screws, he will also screws the idea of another newcomer winning elections again. So.. the story begins now. Let’s all hope for the best. ✌️ but
