Dad Not A Sanghi, But Daughter A DMK Darling? Aishwarya Rajinikanth’s Closeness To DMK’s Kanimozhi Raises Questions

At the audio launch of her directorial venture Lal Salaam (which sank without a trace), Aishwarya Rajinikanth had famously stated her father was not a “Sanghi“.

She said, People label my father as a sanghi. I want to assert here that Rajinikanth is not a sanghi. If he were, he wouldn’t have been a part of “Lal Salaam”. 

After “proving” her dad is not a “Sanghi”, she recently proved she is a DMK fan, or did she?

In a fan meet programme titled Kanimozhi Ennum Naan presented by IBC Tamil channel, Aishwarya Rajinikanth made a surprise entry when DMK MP Kanimozhi was being interviewed by the host.

Kanimozhi mentioned that Aishwarya was like a “sister” to her. She praised her for being an affectionate person and for being there for her during tough times. She further said, “At a time when I asked her father not to make his political entry, she told me she wanted to join me for my campaign.”

At this point, Aishwarya makes her entry and says, “I only go to meet her. I usually don’t go anywhere but her akka (sister) I will go anywhere.”

She then went on to describe her 20-year old relationship with Kanimozhi. She even went on to say, “If I am leaving my house and coming to such a place for someone, it means that they mean so much to me. This proves our relationship.”

She further described Kanimozhi’s political journey as, “From her birth, she has been in a political background. Let’s not reduce her political career to 18/20 years. We both are similar – like fish in water and fish in the ocean. For me, it is cinema, for her it is politics.”

Describing Kanimozhi as her “temple guide”, she said, “She doesn’t believe in God, but she is my temple guide. Wherever I go, it is her people who accompany me.”
