Will Aadhav Arjuna, Son-In-Law Of Lottery King Pose A Threat To Udhayanidhi And Vijay In TN Politics?

There are some undeniable advantages that give a leg up for climbing the beanstalk creeper of politics. Forty two year old Aadav Arjuna has many such born to and attained credits. He is tall, lives in Poes Garden, has a commanding personality, son-in-law of the fabled lottery king Santiago Martin, President of the Basketball Federation of India, part of the core team of election strategist Prashant Kishor and close to V Sabareesan, son in law of CM MK Stalin. This Arjuna is loaded, a walking asset. And of course the perfect alchemist for controversy. So when he walked into Thol Thirumavalavan’s VCK as a general secretary, it raised many eyebrows.  And he too raised several controversial issues. One such was his open statements about Tamil Nadu on monarch rule, especially after Udhayanidhi Stalin became deputy CM, raising the shackles of many that the party was run as a family fiefdom. Arjuna’s daily barbs and challenging the establishment could no longer be ignored. Udhayanidhi was riled up as Arjuna was in the VCK party, a significant ally of the DMK. And then the crowning heresy unfolded in an event co-organised by TN’s well known media house, the Vikatan Group and Arjuna’s “Voice of Commons”, in which the just minted, yet another social messiah, actor Vijay (TVK) was the chief guest. Vijay openly commented that in such an event for Dr BR Ambedkar, the absence of VCK’s Thiruma was notable. . And Vijay went on to welcome Aadav Arjuna for a great common cause, Dr Ambedkar.
