Khushbu Sundar slams Udhayanidhi Stalin’s comment on Trisha Krishnan

Khushbu posted a picture of a Goddess on her Instagram, with the text reading, “The Deity does not test the weak - she refines the chosen.” In her caption, she slammed Udhayanidhi for his comment, writing, “Heard #Udhayanidhi Stalin's speech. It was crass, cheap and deeply derogatory; reflecting the very political culture he seems eager to inherit.”

Slamming him for leading a political party and wanting to govern the state, she added, “What else can one expect from people who treat abusing, degrading and insulting women as a form of political theatre, basking in the applause, whistles and laughter of their loyal supporters? And who will know this better but me?”

Khushbu reminded Udhayanidhi that normalising such language would mean that the dignity of women from his own family could also become a ‘political casuality’ someday. “Public discourse must have boundaries, regardless of political differences. Women need to be respected and not treated as a pawn to play to your whims and fancies,” she further wrote.

The actor-politician then stated that the former DCM cannot match the ‘performance, vision or leadership’ of the current CM Vijay. “When you know you cannot match the performance, vision or leadership of your political opponent, resorting to personal insults and vulgarity becomes the easiest escape.”

She ended her note by calling for a public apology for Trisha, “The Leader of the Opposition owes #Trisha an unconditional public apology for insulting her on a public platform. Lets see if can own up his dirt and if he has the courage and decency to apologize?”

Udhayanidhi gave a public speech about the Cauvery water issue in Thanjavur on Monday. “Our CM is not opening his mouth about the Cauvery water issue. He’s more worried about putting false cases on the DMK,” he said in Tamil, referring to his party. When someone from the audience chanted Trisha’s name, he smiled and made the comment as people around him cheered and hooted.

The internet slammed the actor-politician for making such a comment. X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram were filled with clips of his remarks and people slamming Udhayanidhi for dragging Trisha into his political rivalry with Vijay. According to ANI, on Tuesday, Udhayanidhi was detained by the police following an FIR against him over his alleged defamatory remarks against Vijay. Slogans directed at Trisha were raised at his rally yesterday.
