If Annamalai leaves BJP, it will be considered a big change in Tamil Nadu politics. Especially after the rapid rise of actor-turned-politician Vijay Thalapathy, the political scenario of the state has changed a lot.

A source said, “Today there is no big leader to compete with Vijay. The era of Dravidian politics is over. Only language-based politics will not work anymore. The politics of the state has completely changed.

Amid talks of Annamalai’s possible resignation, his supporters have put up posters in Madurai appealing to him to take the “next avatar” and “save Tamil Nadu”.

These discussions intensified since BJP announced in 2025 before the 2026 assembly elections. “All India Anna Dravid Munnetra Kadgam” As a strategy to revive the alliance with NDA, Annamalai was removed and Nainar Nagendran was made the state president.

Annamalai, who entered politics in 2020 and became the youngest president of Tamil Nadu BJP, is reportedly considering launching a mass movement. However, it is not clear whether it will take the form of any political party in future or not.

Annamalai has neither confirmed nor denied any possibility in this regard. He has said that he will clarify his position in the next two days.

The huge posters put up by his supporters in Coimbatore ahead of his birthday have also given further fuel to these speculations.

Questions about his political future intensified after the 2026 assembly elections, especially when he did not get the opportunity to contest from Coimbatore, even though it was believed that he was keen to contest from the same seat.
