Kamal Haasan likely to contest from Coimbatore in DMK alliance

The Tamil superstar and MNM founder may seek a Lok Sabha seat in the 2024 general elections.

Kamal Haasan likely to contest from Coimbatore in DMK alliance — full coverage and analysis on Nai Khabar. Below we break down the key facts and what this development means.

Tamil superstar and founder president of Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM), Kamal Haasan is likely to contest the Coimbatore Lok Sabha constituency in the 2024 general elections. According to highly placed sources in the MNM, the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) is interested in allocating the Coimbatore seat to Kamal Haasan as he had performed extremely well in the 2021 Assembly polls, losing to Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) Vanathi Sreenivasan by a slender margin of 1,728 votes.

Kamal Haasan on Sunday inaugurated a state-level reach-out campaign of the MNM, ‘Makkalodu Maiam’ (Centre with People) in the Coimbatore South Assembly constituency. The MNM is planning to meet people in all the 234 Assembly constituencies of Tamil Nadu with the party leaders and cadres meeting people at the ward and panchayat level on the difficulties faced by them. This includes the issues overlooked by people’s representatives in their respective constituencies.

The MNM, according to a senior leader of the party, would chalk out its election manifesto based on the feedback from the people at the grassroots levels. The party leadership said that each ward secretary is given a list of 25 binary questions on basic amenities in their area in a Google Form and the feedback will be used to get a clearer picture on each constituency.

Kamal Haasan Likely: Key Context & Background

This section provides additional context on kamal haasan likely — including background, key players, and the Pakistani perspective that shapes our reporting on kamal haasan likely.

Sources in the MNM told IANS that

Sources in the MNM told IANS that the party Coimbatore district functionaries have already appealed to the Tamil superstar to contest from Coimbatore seat in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. It may be noted that Kamal Haasan had recently gifted a car to Sharmila, a Tamil Nadu bus driver who was ousted from job following a controversy of DMK leader Kanimozhi boarding the bus driven by her. Sharmila entered into a verbal duel with the conductor of the bus who asked for the ticket fare from Kanimozhi. This led to the owner of the bus dismissing Sharmila.

Kamal Haasan invited her to his Chennai home and handed over her a new car which she can drive for a living. This gesture of Kamal gifting a car to Sharmila, who is based out of Coimbatore, is also seen as a move by the Tamil superstar to garner popularity in the area.

Some opposition parties have alleged that Kamal Haasan’s car gift to Sharmila was motivated by his political ambitions in Coimbatore. However, Kamal Haasan has maintained that he was only helping a woman who was wronged by her employer.

Kamal Haasan had launched his political party

Kamal Haasan had launched his political party MNM in 2018 with the slogan of “Naalai Namadhe” (Tomorrow is Ours). He had contested from two seats in the 2021 Assembly polls – Coimbatore South and Chennai Central. He lost both the seats but secured more than one lakh votes in each constituency.

The MNM had also forged an alliance with two other regional parties – Indhiya Jananayaga Katchi (IJK) and All India Samathuva Makkal Katchi (AISMK) – for the 2021 polls. However, the alliance could not win any seat and managed to get only 2.52 per cent of the total votes polled.

The DMK, which came to power in Tamil Nadu after defeating the AIADMK-BJP alliance, has been trying to woo Kamal Haasan into its fold. The DMK chief M.K. Stalin had praised Kamal Haasan for his performance in Coimbatore South and had said that he would welcome him if he decides to join hands with the DMK.

The DMK has also been facing some

The DMK has also been facing some challenges from its allies such as Congress, Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK) and Marumalarchi Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (MDMK) over seat-sharing and policy issues. The DMK may see Kamal Haasan as a potential ally who can boost its prospects in urban areas and among youth and educated voters.
