'Sick And Disgusting': AIADMK Leader CV Shanmugam's 'Want Nayanthara' Comment Sparks Outrage On Social Media; Netizens Slam Him

A protest was organised in Villupuram, Tamil Nadu, by the political party AIADMK, condemning the DMK government for failing to prevent the cases of sexual assault in the state. During the protest, the party's leader, CV Shanmugam, in one of his statements, took actress Nayanthara's name, and it has not gone down well with the netizens.

While talking about the current Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, M.K. Stalin, Shanmugam said, “Abdul Kalam asked us to dream. He (Stalin) even said to share our dreams. If I say I want Nayanthara, will he (Stalin) fulfil my dream? If someone asks him (Stalin) to arrange their marriage with Nayanthara, will he fulfil that dream?”

Netizens Slam CV Shanmugam

People on social media are slamming Shanmugam. A netizen tweeted, "Men in Tamil Nadu politics are so disgusting. #Nayanthara is married with kids and they still dragging her name like this. Low lifes (sic)."
