Udhayanidhi Stalin has shot down speculation around Rajinikanth being upset with his possible elevation as the Deputy Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu. He was referring to a clickbait headline.

Udhayanidhi Stalin, son of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin, is poised to take on a significant new role as the deputy chief minister of the state. The 46-year-old’s political journey has seen steady progression, culminating in this anticipated promotion within the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK).

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin is expected to name his deputy today, putting an end to weeks of speculation. According to reports, his elevation is likely to be announced on Wednesday. There has been growing pressure within the DMK for Stalin to appoint his son, Udhayanidhi Stalin, as Deputy Chief Minister.

Superstar Rajinikanth on Friday declined to comment on an expectation in the ruling DMK that Sports Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin will soon be elevated as Deputy Chief Minister. Later in the day, Stalin deprecated disturbing the top actor with a question on the matter while he was on his way to work.
