Kamal Haasan & Party Washed out

Tamil legendary hero and president of the political party Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM) Kamal Haasan was defeated by the BJP contestant Vanathi Srinivasan from the South Coimbatore constituency of Tamil Nadu state. The victory appeared to have swung between the two parties from round one to the last round. Finally, Vanathi had a last laugh winning the battle with 1728 votes majority. 

On behalf of his MNM, Kamal Haasan fielded 42 MLA contestants out of 242 total seats. But then, none of them won the poll battle except Kamal Haasan. 

This is the first time Kamal Haasan led his party contest in the elections but the results are quite disastrous. The next move of Kamal Haasan in politics is awaited.
