This is one gutsy actor who voiced her opinion about pre-marital sex and was haunted by most political outfits and had as many as 22 cases foisted against her. she was left high and dry by those who were with her in her good times. She was greeted with chappals and broom sticks by women who were picked by political outfits, wherever she went. She looked for support from popular film actors and women politicians particularly from Jayalalitha, the former CM of Tamilnadu but none came forward to bail her out and she had to go through horrified times for the past well over 24 months in Tamil Nadu. Unfortunately, she could not move out of Tamilnadu as she was married to a Tamil actor/director, had her home and children studying at chennai. Besides, she was featuring in one of the most popular T V shows hosted by Jaya TV and had a five star viewer rating!
The Supreme court dismissed all her cases recently and upheld the freedom of speech. No women organisation or political party welcomed the ruling in Tamil Nadu and there was absolute silence except for the English T V channels which hailed the ruling and made a celebration!
Immediately the actor announced her intent to join politics and in particular the Congress party to which she had a soft corner. Barely after her announcement to join poliitics, she fired yet another salvo and this time to join the DMK under the leadership of the veteran M K! How did the mindset change within a short period is something which the people of Tamil nadu are pondering about. The entire cabinet was present to witness the starry event of the actor surrendering before the DMK patriarch and presenting a shawl to him to acknowledge him as the supreme leader and to work under his direction! The news was flashed all over in the mass media and the DMK party felt better with yet another feather added to its cap? The congress became the loser as it failed to capitalise the statement and announcements made by the actor about her intentions to join the congress. All said and done, Khushboo will be a great crowd puller wherever she goes in Tamil nadu as there are people who adore her and appreciate her for all her beauty and appeal. There are temples built in honor of khushboo too!! such is the following she has in the state! Both the AIADMK and the congress have failed to rope her in and lost a big opportunity to gain in the forthcoming elections of 2011
for the State Assembly. On the other hand, DMK has been clever enough to bring her into their fold and denying the other political parties the advantage that they could have mustered. DMK has not gained any advantage out of Khushboo joining them but cleverly thwarted the opposition's dream to acquire this Crowd Puller!!! This is what you term as a seasoned politician- Kalaignar Karunanidhi !!!!!
