In Trichy East, he defeated DMK candidate Inigo Irudayaraj by 27,416 votes. But, electoral rules allow a candidate to keep only one constituency. Vijay chose to retain Perambur, reportedly because it is closer to the state secretariat. This left Trichy East vacant, sparking talk about who might contest the by-election.
