So I followed suit,” he said.Ī senior DMK functionary too defended Udhayanidhi’s rising influence. The actions of every DMK MLA indicated it is expected of us. Insiders said he works hard in his constituency, visits regularly, and is responsive to voters.Īn MLA from a party allied to the DMK justified his remarks on Udhayanidhi. Two short years later, he was a star campaigner for the recent Assembly polls and was fielded – and won – from his grandfather’s old Assembly seat of Chepauk-Thiruvellikeni. In contrast, Udhayanidhi, a still-active film producer and actor, only joined the party in 2019 and was made secretary of the youth wing later that year in ‘honour’ of his campaign for the DMK alliance during the 2019 Parliamentary election.
Yet, the veteran functionary recalled he started receiving some praise only after the 1996 election, when youth wing functionaries like Suresh Rajan became ministers.Īccording to DMK insiders, open praise of Stalin only became common in Assembly after he became deputy CM in 2009. Stalin started his political career in his middle-school days, worked his way up to secretary of the youth wing in 1982 and was first elected to Assembly in 1989. However, a veteran party functionary pointed out no such praises were bestowed on Stalin in Assembly when he was starting out. So, when they see the speeches praising Udhayanidhi being carried regularly, they think they will be recognised only if they praise him,” a former DMK MLA told TNIE. The titles MLAs gave to Udhayanidhi in the session include Sengal Nayagar (referring to his display of brick during poll campaigns to criticise the lack of progress on the AIIMS hospital in Madurai) and Ilam Gnayiru (young sun). Yet, the members were taking their cue from the publicity given to these flowery statements in party mouth piece ‘Murasoli’, of which Udhayanidhi is managing director. The surfeit of praise came despite Stalin’s clear direction to party MLAs not to waste time on such speeches. Many even walked over to him to receive his ‘blessings’ after speaking. Several members spent almost half their allotted 10-minutes showering the first-time MLA with praise. Not only was the scion strategically seated behind the CM, impossible to miss in every photo or video of his father, he was also singled out for praise by virtually every party MLA, barring DMK general secretary Durai Murugan. His cousin Arulnithi is also an actor in Kollywood.For political observers and DMK members, the recent Budget session at Kalaivanar Arangam made it clear to all that Udhayanidhi Stalin, son of Chief Minister MK Stalin and grandson of late DMK patriarch M Karunanidhi, is his father’s chosen successor. After completing his VisCom, he decided to join the film industry as his several relatives are associated with the film industry in the 1960s. Udhayanidhi did his schooling from Don Bosco and later graduated from Loyola College in Visual Communications. Udhayanidhi is the elder son of M.K.Stalin, who is a former Deputy Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu.
