Filmmaker-actor Sundar C is making his debut in politics as a candidate for the Pudiya Neethi Katchi (PNK) in the upcoming Tamil Nadu elections. His wife, actor Khushbu Sundar, a political veteran and currently with the BJP, says his entry has ‘rattled’ a ‘learned politician’ in the state.
Khushbu Sundar took to her X (formerly Twitter) and reacted to the buzz around Sundar contesting from Madurai for PNK. She wrote, “I understand the fear #SundarC has evoked in the so called supporters of the ruling party. I like it. Blessings of #MeenakshiAmman is with us.”
She addressed his ‘outsider’ status, writing, “They call him an outsider. But aren’t we all, at some point, strangers to the very places we come to call home? It is not birth, but belonging that defines us. It is not origin, but commitment that matters.”
Sundar C is contesting from Madurai Central as the #Puthiyanidhikatchi candidate under the #2leaves symbol of @aiadmk.official, and has clearly struck a chord.
