Earlier in the day, she had posted a photograph with Vijay. In the picture, the two are seen in co-ordinated outfits, smiling for the camera. Along with it, she wrote, "OMGGG. Congratulationssss @actorvijay sir. This Thalapathy Kacheri is just getting bigger and bigger. Onwards and upwards only. Party Time. Let’s gooo."

TVK’s performance in Tamil Nadu

Vijay’s party emerged as the single largest party in Tamil Nadu, winning 108 of the 234 seats and defeating the DMK and the AIADMK. However, it remained short of the majority mark of 118 needed to form the government on its own. As the single largest party, TVK is likely to be invited by the Governor to form a government.

The election result also drew congratulatory reactions from celebrities, including Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan, Rashmika Mandanna and AR Rahman, among others.

Jana Nayagan awaits certification

Pooja and Vijay’s social media exchange also turned attention back to Jana Nayagan. The film is yet to receive certification and has not been cleared following legal disputes between the production house and the Central Board of Film Certification.
