Perhaps the present crisis and trauma can force our country into something resembling that special moment we found in the sixties. Perhaps we can radically alter our business environment.
India’s industrial output growth saw a 10-month low in June, with Index of Industrial Production (IIP) growing by mere 1.5% as against 1.9% in May 2025.
Standing up to America is usually not a personal risk for a leader in India. Any suggestions of foreign pressure unites India behind who they see as leading them in that fight.
This KAMAL HAASAN hater is a complete idiot who hasn’t a clue of what he’s talking about. Maybe another Modi bhakth from the “tremendous appeal” statement but you need to know that your PM is no match to our Kamal Haasan and get your ground work right before you publish such illogical, outrageous or rather hilarious articles. JACK ASS!!
If Bollywood was in Delhi instead of Mumbai, india could have seen many Bollywood politicians in centre. Film stars has the right to become a politician as every citizen of india.
Film stars have an advantage and they are using it. Though tamilnadu was ruled by film stars it stands in top 5 developed states of india.
So why not film stars??? Instead of goonda politicians…
I don’t think this article had anything to have reflected the ground situation in Tamil Nadu! Guess author is Fictional Writer who would echo his own sentiments doesn’t care about what is ground situation!
Wish The Print does preliminary works before publishing rubbish which neither had any content nor factual!
Kamal has nothing do with aap he is just a guest.I can accept that he has average grass root but by nature he will get their support by his hard work and he has a massive educated youth followers that will change the political system in TN.
Clearly the author has no idea about TN politics. If he thinks that it’s because of no strong leader that BJP has no presence, and that Kamalahasan’s left leaning symbol, and distancing from communalism will lose him votes! He’s playing his cards well, and has struck the right now with the people. Moreover, he thinks that just because the media has portrayed the AAP as being clueless about governance in Delhi, that that must be the truth. Talk to the average Delhi citizen, or go and see the real civic steps taken by them, and you’ll find that they have at least attempted to do much more than any previous Delhi government. That is what irks the big wigs!
The author has no clue of what he’s talking about. I’m not sure he’s in touch with the ground realities of Tamilnadu politics or the sociology of Tamilnadu.
In any case, I don’t see what is wrong with actors or cinema people entering politics. I think anyone who has the will to contribute to society can do so irrespective of their profession. To say that actors must not enter politics reeks of sectarianism. So who qualifies to enter politics? Can’t an auto driver do it? Or a fisherman, or a farmer?
To say the least, the two states that have had actors as prominent leaders (Tamilnadu and Andhra) are the most progressive regions of the country in almost all parameters; economy, society, education, healthcare etc. So what exactly is the problem with ‘star wars’?
BJP’s sleeper cells think they knew everything about TN and fail miserably. None of CMs became one just because of cinema. They used cinema as a tool to promote their ideology. Equating DMK to BJP in terms of party structure & cadres is ridiculous. And finally saying Modi has a tremendous appeal in TN is the most funniest thing.
Like Indira Gandhi and Vajpayee, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has tremendous appeal in Tamil Nadu.
Well this writer is a paid agent and a dedicated Bhakt. Like the Made In India PNB Scam this write up is Paid Social Media Scam…. nice fiction.
I would not agree when you say only national parties can provide the leadership Tamil nadu requires. National parties have always been known to appease only the cow belt and minorities and they donot keep the interests of region in mind. Look at the classic case of Andhra, where a ruling national party is in alliance with the ruling State government, none of the promises made to Andhra have been fulfilled. Same is the case with many other south states as well. I think it’s time we adopt a more de centralised structure.
“Prime Minister Narendra Modi has tremendous appeal in Tamil Nadu”. Author doesn’t know what’s the state of mind in Tamil Nadu. PM is cursed left right and centre bcoz of his incapable handling of important government policies and letting off criminals (Nirav, Mallya). He doesn’t walk the talk, his poll promise are damb squib, inflation is at all time high, crude oil prices are low but taxation and looting on petroleum products are high. People in Tamil Nadu are fed up by both state and centre. I believe author is a bhakt.
“Such leadership could have been provided only by national parties like the Congress and BJP.” This is a shallow assumption. It reeks of aversion to state-based political parties as if national parties have a high moral ground. Do these author spurt words without thinking?
Dr Kaamahassan is a legend in cinema…he is a gd actor, gd kisser etc…but he can kiss his political aspirations goodbye.

The author is dreaming about Indian national parties ruling Tamil Nadu .Never again!
Modi has tremendous appeal in Tamil Nadu ?? Nothing more funny than that …

Who is this fool (author)? Does he have any clue about politics?!? Just having big words.
‘Prime Minister Narendra Modi has tremendous appeal in Tamil Nadu’ clearly author does not know anything about Tamil nadu

You have misunderstood the TN and it’s politics.
