High drama in Tamil Nadu! Udhayanidhi Stalin taken into custody for vulgar remarks targeting Trisha

CHENNAI: Tamil Nadu opposition leader Udhayanidhi Stalin was taken into custody for his double-entendre targeting actress Trisha. The police registered a case on the complaint filed by TVK regarding the remark. Udhayanidhi was taken into custody from his residence in Neelankarai.

Meanwhile, high drama ensued after DMK workers blocked the police vehicle carrying Stalin and engaged in push and shove with the officials. In parliament, the DMK MPs walked straight to the well of the house and protested the arrest. After Udhayanidhi approached the High Court seeking anticipatory bail in the case, the court asked the police not to arrest the opposition leader till 12 noon. Chennai City Police Commissioner Amalraj has also reached the spot. Meanwhile, TVK activists have hit the streets in protest against the rude remark Stalin made against Trisha.

Opposition leader Udhayanidhi Stalin made a double-edged remark targeting Trisha while criticising Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Joseph C. Vijay on the Cauvery water dispute issue. Udhayanidhi's remarks were made at a protest event organised in Thanjavur on August 3 on the Cauvery water dispute.

Udhayanidhi alleged that the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister was focusing on other matters instead of addressing the basic needs of the people. The government is engaging in political vendettas rather than addressing the people's problems. Udhayanidhi said that the Chief Minister's focus was on filing false cases against DMK workers.

Later, the DMK workers below the stage shouted Trisha's name. Udhayanidhi smirked at this and later used double entendre. Udhayanidhi immediately corrected himself, saying that he meant the Cauvery river and not the actress. However, the damage was done, and a huge uproar spread over the state in no time.
