Captain Vijaykanth has caught the industry by surprise by throwing in his hat for another term as Nadigar Sangam chief at the General body meting organized by the artists association on Sunday evening.At the meeting, it was decided to hold the elections to the post of the new Nadigar Sangam Chief on July 30. Among the notable absentees at the Sunday meeting were Sarath Kumar, who was away in Hyderabad (?), Satyaraj who is ruling party’s favourite and Prabhu who is touted as a compromise candidate.
The twist at the meeting was when Vijaykanth who has made a successful entry into active politics and is the lone MLA of his DMDK, expressed his desire to continue as the Nadigar Sangam president for the third time!
Said Vijaykanth: “I have not said anywhere that I will not be contesting. I think that Nadigar Sangam routine activities will be taken care of by the 14 sub committees already in place. I don’t consider being Nadigar Sangam President is a burden on me”.
But the industry watchers say that the ruling DMK government will do everything possible to give a fight to Vijaykanth. There is bound to be more drama to the elections due on July 30.
