2024 - Joined Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam, a newly formed party by actor Vijay
2026 - First electoral contest from Manapparai constituency in Tamil Nadu Assembly elections
R. Kathiravan is a new face in Tamil Nadu politics, riding the wave of actor Vijay's newly formed Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK). With no established public profile or documented track record, voter sentiment remains largely uncertain. The party itself has generated enthusiasm as an alternative to DMK-AIADMK dominance, but also faced tragedy with the September 2025 Karur crowd crush that killed 41 people at a TVK rally.
