DMK working president M.K. Stalin expressed profound outrage on August 4, 2017, over the clandestine removal of the statue of thespian Sivaji Ganesan from Kamarajar Salai in Chennai. Stalin condemned the AIADMK administration for executing the removal in the middle of the night, describing it as a calculated, vindictive act aimed at tarnishing the memory of a cultural icon. The statue had been unveiled by DMK president Kalaignar Karunanidhi in 2006 to honor Sivaji's peerless contribution to world cinema and Tamil performing arts.
Stalin pointed out that citing traffic hindrance to displace the monument while ignoring other beachfront obstructions revealed sheer political pettiness. Sivaji Ganesan was a recipient of the prestigious Dadasaheb Phalke Award and Chevalier title, celebrated globally for elevating Tamil language and dramatic expression. Removing his likeness under cover of darkness dishonored millions of art lovers and cineastes worldwide who revere his artistic legacy.
The DMK leader demanded that the state government reinstall the statue with full state honors and civic prominence. Stalin asserted that cultural treasures transcend partisan disputes and must always be treated with profound institutional reverence and civic dignity.
